Freedom and Independence
The idea that people or characters can be free and make their own choices.
What is it?
Freedom and independence is a theme in art where artists show figures who are strong, self-reliant, and free. Diana, the goddess of hunting, is often shown as independent and powerful. She is not controlled by anyone. The Diana statue by Saint-Gaudens was also a symbol of freedom because it was placed high on a tower, turning in the wind. The statue's pose — about to shoot an arrow — shows her readiness to act on her own. The child's reflection mentions that Diana symbolizes freedom and independence, which were important themes in late 19th-century art.
Why it matters
This theme reminds us that art can express ideas about liberty and personal strength. Many artists have used figures like Diana to celebrate freedom.
