Diana Restoration

"The statue and fountain known as the Diana Fountain was designed by the French sculptor, Hubert Le Sueur for Charles I. He submitted an invoice in 1637 for a 'great Diana' for £200. The assumption has to be that this was the statue which was placed on a fountain, also designed by Le Sueur three years previously."
