The neo-Greek work depicts the moon and Diana, the goddess of the hunt, on her head wearing a crescent moon crown with her right shoulder arched, her legs crossed in the forest, her posture graceful and ereccutive, her left hand holding up the branch of the oak tree, her head slightly raised, and her gaze focused and determined. Through the delicate portrayal of Diana's posture and expression, the artist perfectly shows the goddess's firm belief and solemn majesty. The pedestal of the work is by the artist J. J. Garnier is engraved with a signature, and the plaque on the base bears the name of the work and the artist's information.
