EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Michel Dorigny, we are transported to a mythical world where the Greek god Pan and the nymph Syrinx come to life. The intricate details of this print bring out the essence of their story, capturing both their beauty and vulnerability. Pan, known as the god of nature and shepherds, is depicted with his characteristic goat-like features. His mischievous smile hints at his playful nature as he gazes adoringly at Syrinx. Meanwhile, Syrinx stands gracefully before him, her flowing robes accentuating her ethereal presence. Her eyes reflect a mix of curiosity and apprehension in response to Pan's advances. Dorigny's masterful use of lines creates depth and texture in every element of this composition. From the delicate folds in their garments to the lush foliage surrounding them, each detail adds to the overall enchantment of the scene. This exquisite print from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection serves as a testament to Dorigny's skill as an engraver and his ability to breathe life into classical mythology. It invites viewers into a world where gods mingle with mortals, reminding us that even ancient tales can still resonate with our modern sensibilities. Whether displayed on its own or as part of a larger collection, this piece is sure to captivate art enthusiasts who appreciate both historical significance and artistic excellence.
