''Diana'' is an oil painting by the English artist William Etty, first exhibited in 1833. Known for his focus on the nude in historical and mythological paintings, Etty's work often sparked controversy for its explicit content during the Victorian era. ''Diana'' depicts the Roman goddess of the hunt, the moon, and nature, identifiable by her attributes such as the bow and quiver, in a moment of repose, surrounded by her attendants.

The painting is a testament to Etty's mastery of the human form and his dedication to classical themes. Despite the potential for scandal, Etty was a respected artist of his time, and his works were influential in the British art scene. ''Diana'' is characteristic of his style, which combined a rich color palette with a sensuous appreciation of the female form, set against a backdrop of idyllic landscapes or, as in this case, a mythological context.

As with many of Etty's paintings, ''Diana'' was likely intended to celebrate the beauty of the human body and the nobility of ancient cultures, while also engaging with contemporary discussions about morality, sensuality, and art. The painting's reception at the time of its exhibition would have been mixed, with some critics praising Etty's skill and others decrying the perceived indecency of his subject matter.

Today, ''Diana'' is considered part of Etty's significant contribution to British art, particularly in his persistent challenge to the era's norms regarding the portrayal of nudity. The painting is also an example of the 19th-century British artists' engagement with classical antiquity, reflecting the period's intellectual and aesthetic fascinations. ''Diana'' remains an important work for understanding the complexities of reception and the role of the nude in the history of art, as well as for appreciating the technical abilities of William Etty as a painter.
