The great god Pan : the survival of an image

by John Boardman

This work examines the representation of Pan and his pipes in art and literature from antiquity to the twentieth century. It analyses his transformation from a pastoral figure and Bacchic reveller to a symbol for Romantic artists and modern caricaturists.
