VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an illustration depicting the mythological figure Pan, known in Greek mythology as the god of the wild, shepherds and flocks, nature of mountain wilds, rustic music and impromptus. The artwork presents a vintage style with earthy tones and has a circular composition. In this image, Pan is shown with his characteristic features: he has the upper body of a man with a rugged beard and long hair but possesses the legs and horns of a goat. He appears to be playing his signature instrument—the pan flute—while carrying over his shoulder an unconscious or sleeping woman who is dressed in classical attire reminiscent of ancient Greece. Her attire includes drapery that flows elegantly from her waist down to her knees; it's adorned with intricate patterns. The setting suggests a wooded area—a natural habitat for Pan—with trees surrounding them both. There are also details such as fallen leaves on the ground which add to the forest ambiance. At their feet lies what seems like another pan flute alongside some scattered sheets of paper—perhaps sheet music or poetry—which contributes to an atmosphere filled with artistic inspiration mixed with mythical undertones. The text around this central scene indicates that this drawing was intended for "La Vie Parisienne, " suggesting it may have been used as an illustration for that publication during its time period. The artist's name is mentioned at the bottom right corner indicating authorship.
