"Faun and Nymph" (1868) is a notable painting by Hungarian artist Pál Szinyei Merse, a pioneer of Hungarian plein air painting and an early representative of Impressionism in Central Europe. The artwork is emblematic of Szinyei Merse's fascination with natural light and his innovative approach to capturing the fleeting moments of outdoor scenes, which was a departure from the academic traditions of his time.

The painting depicts a mythological scene featuring a faun, a creature from Roman mythology that is part human and part goat, in an intimate moment with a nymph, a nature deity associated with a particular location or landform. "Faun and Nymph" is characterized by its vibrant color palette and the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, which reflects the artist's interest in the effects of sunlight and his commitment to painting en plein air.

Szinyei Merse's work on "Faun and Nymph" coincided with a period in his career when he was experimenting with new subjects and techniques, influenced by the broader European art movements of the time, including Impressionism. The painting is considered an important contribution to the Hungarian art canon, as it showcases the artist's break from conventional historical and allegorical themes, embracing instead the sensuality of mythological subjects and the immediacy of the natural world.

"Faun and Nymph" holds a significant place in Szinyei Merse's oeuvre and in the history of Hungarian art, as it exemplifies the artist's role in introducing and adapting contemporary Western European artistic trends to his native country's cultural context. The painting is often discussed in the context of Szinyei Merse's impact on the development of modern Hungarian painting and his influence on subsequent generations of Hungarian artists.
