The Infant Pan, 1875
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait that showcases the artistic brilliance of German painter Guido Bach. Created in the late 19th century, this painting beautifully captures the essence of ancient Greek mythology and rural life. The image depicts an infant boy seated outdoors, playing a flute-like musical instrument known as pan pipes. This instrument holds great significance as it is associated with Pan, the half-man and half-goat deity from Greek mythology. Bach's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the child's innocence and serenity while surrounded by nature. A fawn stands beside him, emphasizing his connection to wildlife and further enhancing the rustic ambiance of the scene. The vibrant colors used by Bach bring life to this enchanting composition. This particular print of "The Infant Pan" has an intriguing provenance; it was once part of collections owned by Lawrence B. Phillips, Esq. , and Howard Gritten, M. P. Its inclusion in "The Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours" edited by Charles Holme, speaks volumes about its artistic merit. Guido Bach's masterful depiction not only celebrates childhood but also pays homage to ancient traditions and religious beliefs. This artwork serves as a testament to Bach's talent for capturing both beauty and symbolism within his paintings.
