The effect of a periodic pinning array on the vortex state in a 2Dsuperconductor at low temperatures is studied within the framework of theGinzburg-Landau approach. It is shown that attractive interaction of vortexcores to a commensurate pin lattice stabilizes vortex solid phases with longrange positional order against violent shear fluctuations. Exploiting a simpleanalytical method, based on the Landau orbitals description, we derive a ratherdetailed picture of the low temperatures vortex state phase diagram. It ispredicted that for sufficiently clean samples application of an artificialperiodic pinning array would enable one to directly detect the intrinsic shearstiffness anisotropy characterizing the ideal vortex lattice.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
