This is a marble statue of the goddess Artemis. This statue appeared in front of people in a relatively uncommon design. Different from the most well-known design, the hunting god of this design is sitting, and the hound is lying at her feet docilely, looking very peaceful. The Artemis marble statue of this design is very charming when installed in outdoor places, and could be installed in gardens, parks, squares, and other places.
What is the Goddess Artemis?
Artemis, the goddess of chastity, the hunt, and the moon, was often depicted with her trusty bow and a short tunic to aid in running through the woods. Her girlish virtues – as she has sworn never to marry – contrast with the fiery Aphrodite. In ancient Greek mythology and religion, Artemis was the goddess of the hunt, wilderness, wild animals, nature, vegetation, childbirth, parenting, and chastity. She is closely related to Selene, Moon, and Hecate

Choose Marble As the Raw Material for the Statue of Artemis:
Sculptors love marble because, while relatively soft and easy to work when freshly mined, it becomes incredibly hard and dense over time and comes in a variety of shades and patterns. White marble is particularly favored for fine art sculpture because of its relative isotropy and homogeneity and resistance to breakage. Therefore, there are many statues designed in classic styles that use marble as raw material.
