"Pan and Selene" is a painting by the German Mannerist artist Hans von Aachen, created in the late 16th or early 17th century. The work depicts the mythological encounter between Pan, the Greek god of the wild and shepherds, and Selene, the goddess of the moon. Known for his skillful blend of Northern European and Italian techniques, von Aachen's portrayal of this mythological theme is characterized by its dynamic composition, rich color palette, and the sensual representation of the figures.

The painting illustrates the moment of seduction or encounter between the two deities, with Pan traditionally shown in his half-goat, half-human form, symbolizing rustic nature and fertility, while Selene is often depicted in her serene and luminous beauty, embodying the celestial. "Pan and Selene" reflects the Mannerist style's penchant for elongated figures, artificial poses, and sophisticated allegory, all of which are evident in von Aachen's treatment of the subject.

Hans von Aachen (1552–1615) was a prominent figure in the late Renaissance, serving at the courts of Emperor Rudolf II in Prague and other European nobility. His works often included religious and mythological scenes, portraits, and allegories, which were highly prized for their inventiveness and virtuosity. "Pan and Selene" is a testament to von Aachen's ability to fuse the erotic elements of mythology with the refined aesthetics of his time, making it a significant piece within his oeuvre.

The painting's provenance, current location, and critical reception over time contribute to its historical and artistic significance. As a notable work by Hans von Aachen, "Pan and Selene" continues to be studied for its contribution to the Mannerist movement and its reflection of the cultural and artistic milieu of the late Renaissance.
