Lady Diana

Inspired by a sculpture-bust of Diana, the goddess of hunting, in the latest issue of Domino (p. 157 for those of you keeping track at home), I just scored this modest replica on Ebay for $39 plus shipping.

Not bad for two reasons: (one) I needs me some sculpture up in this piece and (two) mythology was always my favorite subject in school. For realz, if being a Classics major didn't (one) require me to learn Greek and (two) destine me to a life of professorship, I would've spent my (four) years researching the wheres and how-for's of Clytamenstra and other folk whose names sound suspiciously like skin viruses.

Compromise? An english degree and a phony bust. Ahem.
