I think they are whatever you want them to be, every person seems to see them differently. I've looked at many drawings of Diana trying to see if it was copied from another work but have not located this one. Other figures found on Adolph rifles were from art and literature. Something more to look for. The rifle in question, MP Sadly Deceased as of 2/17/2014
