This exceptional sheet iron weathervane depicts the Roman goddess Diana accompanied by her faithful hound, masterfully crafted by the celebrated Hungarian-American artist William Hunt Diederich. Created in New York during the 1920s, the work exemplifies Diederich's distinctive silhouette style, which drew inspiration from folk art, ancient Greek pottery, and the modernist movement. The dynamic composition showcases his remarkable ability to capture fluid movement and elegant form through cut and hammered metal.
