Depicting the Roman goddess of the hunt, Diana is a small version of the massive weathervane Augustus Saint-Gaudens designed for the second iteration of Madison Square Garden in New York, a building that was demolished in 1925. Although controversial for its nudity, the weathervane dominated the city's skyline and became a prominent landmark. Due to its popularity, Saint-Gaudens marketed tabletop versions of the sculpture, which were sold through high-end retailers such as Tiffany and Co.
