Louis Dorigny ~ Pan and the Hours. 

Fresco Palazzo Orsetti Dolfin Giacomelli, Treviso

In the Pan and the Hours, the figure of Pan has unfortunately been compromised by an extensive loss of plaster. Enveloped in a long vegetal festoon and accompanied by a white goat, he seems annoyed by two irreverent cupids. He is taken by surprise at the sight of two graceful, transparent Hours hovering in the sky.
