"Pan Frightening a Shepherd" is a painting by the Swiss symbolist artist Arnold Böcklin, created in 1892. This work is one of Böcklin's later paintings, and it exemplifies his fascination with mythological subjects and his penchant for infusing landscapes with a sense of the mystical or uncanny. The painting depicts the ancient Greek god Pan, known for his association with nature, shepherds, and flocks, as well as his capacity to inspire sudden fear, known as "panic."

In the painting, Böcklin presents a dramatic scene in which Pan, often characterized with the hindquarters, legs, and horns of a goat, startles a shepherd in a bucolic setting. The shepherd's reaction to the sudden appearance of the deity is central to the composition, capturing a moment of intense emotion that is heightened by the contrast between the serene landscape and the unexpected encounter.

The artwork reflects Böcklin's signature style, which often combined classical motifs with a dreamlike atmosphere, and it contributes to the broader symbolist movement by exploring themes of the unconscious, myth, and the power of nature. "Pan Frightening a Shepherd" is notable for its dynamic composition, the interplay of light and shadow, and its exploration of the psychological impact of the mythological on the human psyche.

As with many of Böcklin's works, this painting invites interpretation and has been the subject of various analyses in terms of its symbolism and its place within the artist's oeuvre. It is a testament to Böcklin's enduring legacy as a painter who bridged the gap between traditional academic art and the emerging symbolist movement at the end of the 19th century.
