He is typically portrayed with the horns and cloven hooves of a goat, and surrounded by woodland creatures. Frederick William MacMonnies’s Pan of Rohallion does not employ these attributes. Instead, Pan is a young boy wrapped in greenery and playing two long flutes. He balances atop a bronze orb while fish gather below him to listen to his song. 00;08;40;13 - 00;09;09;02 Matthew Schulte Born to a New York Scottish immigrant family in 1862, MacMonnie succeeded early in his career. In 1888, famed American architect Stanford White asked MacMonnie to create a fountain for American banker and businessman Edward Deane Adams's New Jersey estate Rohallion. the original six foot bronze sculpture was such a commercial success that smaller versions of it were cast and sold at the peak of the sculpture's popularity. 00;09;09;04 - 00;09;34;26 Matthew Schulte Four foundries were needed to cast MacMonnies’s bronze pans cast by grew it in Paris after 1894. The Alzheimer Museum's pan is the finest example of this work.
