• signature: COC 1911

This 1911 wood relief by artist and craftsman Carl Otto Czeschka, who taught at the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts from 1902 to 1908 and also designed objects for the Wiener Werkstätte, was meant to serve as the model for a decorative work in marble for the Stoclet House in Brussels, built by Josef Hoffmann between 1905 and 1912. The Diana figure’s hair, interwoven with flowers, flows over her one shoulder, and the soft curves of her body stand out in flat relief from the rest of the surface. The hair, the crescent moon and the stars are either gold and silver-plated or painted dark gray, and they contrast with the ivory-colored enamel finish used for the female figure and the background. (Hackenschmidt, Sebastian)
