This drawing depicts the mythological pursuit of the nymph Syrinx by the lustful god Pan, rendered in black chalk and brown wash by a follower of Annibale Carracci. The work exemplifies the Baroque draughtsman's skill in capturing dynamic movement and emotional drama through fluid linework and tonal modulation, though the composition's attribution has shifted over time, as evidenced by the pencil notation crediting Carlo Cignani. The drawing's provenance traces to a late 19th century English collection, and despite minor losses and age-related toning, it retains considerable vigor in its expression of this classical narrative.
