context_page_description: The Fountain of Diana, also known as Diana of Anet and Diana with a Stag, is a marble Mannerist sculpture of the goddess Diana, representing Diane de Poitiers. It was created c. 1549 to be the central ornament of a grand fountain in a courtyard of Diane de Poitier's Château d'Anet, but today is in the Louvre, Room 15b on the ground floor of the Richelieu Wing. Long believed to be the work of Jean Goujon, the identity of the sculptor is now considered uncertain, although Benvenuto Cellini, Germain Pilon, Pierre Bontemps, and Ponce Jacquiot have in turn been suggested.
