Artist

Sculpture
Modern French artist Aristide Maillol produced art historically significant paintings, sculptures and prints in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and is perhaps most well known for his large-scale allegorical, archetypal representations of female nudes. Approaching the classical Roman female form with a modernist abstract and realist treatment, Maillol’s style reflects the preceding and contemporaneous movements of Impressionism, Symbolism and Post-Impressionism.
