Aristide Maillol was one of the most famous sculptors of his time. His work, silent, based on full forms, developed from the study of the female nude and simplified to the point of purity, represents a true artistic revolution, anticipating abstraction. His work marked the turning point between the 19th and 20th centuries, inspiring many great artists, including Henry Moore, Arp, and Laurens, and finding resonance with Picasso, Brancusi, and Matisse.
