In 1908, the French painter [[Henri Matisse]] produced his own ''Nymph and Satyr'' painting, in which the animal nature of the satyr is drastically minimized.{{sfn|Florence|2004|pages=97–98}} The satyr is given human legs, but is exceptionally hairy.{{sfn|Florence|2004|pages=97–98}} The seduction element is removed altogether; the satyr simply extends his arms towards the nymph, who lies on the ground, defeated.{{sfn|Florence|2004|pages=97–98}} Penny Florence writes that the "generic scene displays little sensuality"{{sfn|Florence|2004|page=98}} and that the main factor distinguishing it is its tone, because "[i]t does not seem convincing as a rape, despite the nymph's reluctance."{{sfn|Florence|2004|page=98}} In 1912, [[Vaslav Nijinsky]] choreographed Debussy's symphonic poem ''Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun'' as a ballet and danced in it as the lead role of the faun.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} The choreography of the ballet and Nijinsky's performance were both highly erotic and sexually charged, causing widespread scandal among upper-class Parisians.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} In the 1980 biographical film ''[[Nijinsky (film)|Nijinsky]]'', directed by [[Herbert Ross]], Nijinsky, who is played by [[George de la Peña]], is portrayed as actually masturbating on stage in front of the entire live audience during the climax of the dance.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}}

The 1917 Italian [[silent film]] ''Il Fauno'', directed by [[Febo Mari]], is about a statue of a faun who comes to life and falls in love with a female model.{{sfn|Faedo|2010|page=359}} Fauns appear in the animated dramatization of [[Ludwig van Beethoven]]'s [[Symphony No. 6 (Beethoven)|Symphony No. 6]] (1808) in the 1940 [[Walt Disney Pictures|Disney]] animated film ''[[Fantasia (1940 film)|Fantasia]]''.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} Their goat-legs are portrayed as brightly colored, but their hooves are black.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} They play the Pan pipes and, like traditional satyrs and fauns, are portrayed as mischievous.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} One young faun plays [[hide-and-seek]] with a [[unicorn]] and imitates a statue of a faun atop a pedestal.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} Though the fauns are not portrayed as overtly sexual, they do assist the [[Cupid]]s in pairing the centaurs into couples.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} A drunken Bacchus appears in the same scene.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}}

A faun named [[Mr. Tumnus]] appears in the classic [[juvenile fantasy]] novel ''[[The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe]]'' (1950) by [[C. S. Lewis]].{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} Mr. Tumnus has goat legs and horns, but also a tail long enough for him to carry it draped over his arm to prevent it from dragging in the snow.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}} He is a domesticated figure who lacks the bawdiness and [[hypersexuality]] that characterized classical satyrs and fauns.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|pages=235–236}} Instead, Mr. Tumnus wears a scarf and carries an umbrella and lives in a cozy cave with a bookshelf with works such as ''The Life and Letters of Silenus'', ''Nymphs and their Ways'', and ''Is Man a Myth?''.{{sfn|Riggs|2014|page=235}}
