The St. Louis Art Museum’s statue ofReclining Panproved inspirational to many artists of the seventeenth century, none more so than Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione. The artist reproduced the statue in many of his works, making it a symbol of hisinvenzione. Previously, the few reproductions known of the statue have given the impression that Baroque audiences considered it antiquwct 2 e, and of less interest than other antiquities. This article corrects that assumption by examining Castiglione’s, as well as Peter Paul Rubens’, Joachim von Sandrart’s, Nicolas Poussin’s, and Salvator Rosa’s uses of the statue. The artists used thePanas both figural exemplar and symbol for pastoral themes. These artistic responses are here set alongside new information concerning thePan’s seventeenth-century provenance, display, and attribution to Bernini, to reveal theReclining Panas a primary catalyst for the period’s extensive Arcadian and bacchanalian imagery while simultaneously representing lessons of the classical style.
