"Faun und Nymph (Pan und Flora)" (Faun and Nymph (Pan and Flora)) is a notable painting by the Austrian academic history painter Hans Makart (1840–1884). Created in the 19th century, this work exemplifies Makart's lavish and sensuous style, which was heavily influenced by the artistic trends of the time, particularly by the historicism and the academic art movements. The painting depicts a mythological scene featuring a faun, a creature from Roman mythology that is part human and part goat, often associated with forests and pastoral environments, and a nymph, a female nature deity typically linked to particular landscapes or natural features.

Makart was renowned for his grand historical and allegorical compositions, often characterized by their opulent coloration and elaborate detail. "Faun und Nymph (Pan und Flora)" is no exception, showcasing his skill in rendering textures, from the softness of skin to the rusticity of the faun's fur and the lushness of the surrounding flora. The painting's subject matter reflects the 19th-century fascination with classical antiquity and mythology, which artists like Makart revisited with a romanticized and sometimes eroticized perspective.

The interaction between the faun and the nymph in the painting is likely to be charged with the sensual and playful energy typical of Makart's mythological representations. The choice of Pan and Flora as alternative titles for the characters points to the specific mythological figures the painting might be referencing: Pan, the god of the wild known for his mischievous and lustful nature, and Flora, the goddess of flowers and spring, symbolizing growth and fertility.

As a prominent figure in the Viennese art scene of his time, Makart's works were influential in shaping the tastes of the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy and the burgeoning bourgeoisie. His studio became a center of the artistic life in Vienna, and his style, known as "Makartstil," became synonymous with the pomp and splendor of the era, influencing interior design, fashion, and the decorative arts.

The painting "Faun und Nymph (Pan und Flora)" is a testament to Hans Makart's mastery of historical and mythological themes, as well as his ability to infuse his works with a sense of drama and sensuality. It remains an important piece within the oeuvre of Makart and serves as a window into the aesthetic preferences of late 19th-century European art.
