"Nu Allongé" (Reclining Nude) is a celebrated sculpture by the French artist Aristide Maillol, who is renowned for his contributions to modern sculpture in the early 20th century. Maillol, originally a painter and tapestry designer, turned to sculpture in his forties, where he found his true calling. His work is characterized by its classical simplicity and focus on the human form, often drawing comparisons to the ancient Greek sculptors.

Created in 1921, "Nu Allongé" exemplifies Maillol's mature style, which emphasizes smooth, rounded forms and a serene, contemplative quality. The sculpture depicts a reclining female nude, a subject that Maillol revisited frequently throughout his career. Unlike the dynamic and often dramatic poses favored by many of his contemporaries, Maillol's nudes are noted for their calm, introspective presence. The figure in "Nu Allongé" is rendered with a sense of timelessness and tranquility, her body flowing in a series of gentle curves that suggest both strength and repose.

Maillol's approach to the human form was deeply influenced by his admiration for classical antiquity, yet his work also reflects the modernist sensibilities of his time. "Nu Allongé" eschews the detailed naturalism of earlier academic sculpture in favor of a more abstracted, essentialized representation. This focus on form and volume over intricate detail aligns Maillol with other modernist sculptors like Constantin Brâncuși and Henry Moore, who similarly sought to distill the essence of their subjects.

The sculpture has been widely acclaimed for its purity of form and its ability to convey a profound sense of peace and harmony. It has been exhibited in numerous prestigious institutions and remains a significant work in the study of early 20th-century sculpture. "Nu Allongé" continues to be celebrated for its elegant simplicity and its enduring beauty, embodying Maillol's belief in the power of the human form as a source of artistic inspiration.
