"Les Pastorales de Longus ou Daphnis & Chloe" is a notable work by the French artist Aristide Maillol, who is renowned for his contributions to sculpture, painting, and printmaking. This work is an illustrated edition of the ancient Greek novel "Daphnis and Chloe," attributed to the author Longus. The novel, a pastoral romance, tells the story of two foundlings, Daphnis and Chloe, who are raised by shepherds on the island of Lesbos and eventually fall in love.

Maillol's interpretation of this classic text is celebrated for its exquisite illustrations, which capture the bucolic beauty and romantic essence of the narrative. His illustrations are characterized by their simplicity, elegance, and a profound sense of harmony with nature, reflecting Maillol's deep appreciation for classical art and his mastery of form and line.

The project was a collaboration with the publisher Ambroise Vollard, a prominent figure in the art world who was known for his luxurious and finely crafted books. Vollard's editions often featured original artworks by leading artists of the time, and "Les Pastorales de Longus ou Daphnis & Chloe" is no exception. Maillol's illustrations for this edition are considered some of his finest works on paper, showcasing his ability to translate the idyllic and sensual qualities of the text into visual form.

Published in the early 20th century, Maillol's "Les Pastorales de Longus ou Daphnis & Chloe" stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of classical literature and the timeless beauty of Maillol's artistic vision. It remains a cherished piece among collectors and art enthusiasts, reflecting the seamless blend of literary and visual art that characterizes some of the most treasured illustrated books in history.
