In Diana, myth is brought to the present. MacDonald portrays the female at her height during the close of the 20th century as a synthesis of physical strength, spiritual determination and sensual grace. The diagonal composition includes tremendous movement: her long strides are gracefully executed and charged with energy. MacDonald has included a weapon in Diana's hand, also symbolic of the crescent moon - Diana's symbol as goddess of the hunt.
