EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Sweet, piercing sweet was the music of Pans pipe" takes us on a journey back to ancient Greece. Created by Walter Crane in 1913, it beautifully captures the essence of Greek mythology and its enchanting characters. In this scene, we find ourselves at the riverbank where Pan, the half-goat god of shepherds and music, stands with his magical instrument - the panpipe. As he plays his melodious tunes on these reed pipes, his music fills the air with an ethereal sweetness that captivates all who hear it. Pan's admirers gather around him; among them is a mesmerized female figure dressed in traditional Greek attire. She listens intently to every note as her eyes sparkle with delight. Onlookers include mythological creatures such as satyrs and fauns – mythical beings known for their wild nature and association with Pan. Walter Crane's artistic skill shines through in this children's illustration from "The Story of Greece". His attention to detail brings each character to life while maintaining a sense of wonder and fantasy. The vibrant colors used in this print add depth and richness to an already marvelous depiction. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported into a world where gods roam freely alongside mortals – reminding us of the enduring power that mythology holds over our imaginations.
