"A Study of Pan Seated, Playing the Pipes" is a notable artwork by the Flemish Baroque painter Jacob Jordaens (1593–1678), who was one of the most prominent artists of the 17th century in the region that is now Belgium. This particular work is a fine example of Jordaens' skill in rendering mythological subjects, a common theme in Baroque art. The painting depicts Pan, the Greek god of the wild, shepherds, and flocks, known for his half-human, half-goat appearance and his association with rustic music.

In this study, Pan is portrayed seated and deeply engrossed in playing his signature instrument, the panpipes, which are also known as syrinx. The term "study" in the context of this artwork suggests that it may have been a preparatory work or an exploration of form and composition that Jordaens used to refine his ideas for a larger or more complex piece. The painting is characterized by its dynamic brushwork and the vivid portrayal of Pan's intense concentration on his music. The use of light and shadow, as well as the naturalistic details of Pan's rustic appearance, are indicative of Jordaens' mastery of the Baroque style, which emphasized movement, color, and sensuality.

Jacob Jordaens was a contemporary of Peter Paul Rubens and Anthony van Dyck and, like them, played a significant role in the development of the Flemish Baroque tradition. Although Jordaens is less known for his mythological scenes compared to his genre scenes and portraits, "A Study of Pan Seated, Playing the Pipes" stands as a testament to his versatility and his ability to imbue classical subjects with a sense of immediacy and emotional depth.

The painting is an important piece within Jordaens' oeuvre, contributing to our understanding of his artistic process and the broader context of Baroque art in the Low Countries. It is also an example of the cultural fascination with classical antiquity that was prevalent during the period, reflecting the humanist interests of the time. The artwork is held in high regard by art historians and is studied for its aesthetic qualities as well as its place within the history of European art.
