Follower of Cornelis van Poelenburgh

Oil on cradled panel. The surface is relatively clean, though thin in places. There are horizontal panel cracks visible, including one extending from right to left through the dog and below Diana's arms; a crack that extends horizontally across the sky; and another two shorter cracks that extend from the left edge into the grotto. Under uV light, retouching is visible around these panel cracks, as well as some small scattered spots of retouching scattered throughout the work.
