First Book: Chloe Bathing (Chloe au milieu des roseaux) is a masterwork of Modern Classical printmaking by Aristide Maillol, published in 1937. Renowned for his sculptural approach to the human form, Maillol translates his tactile sensibility into graphic medium with fluid, minimalist linework that captures the serene essence of Chloe amidst the reeds. This historic woodcut print represents a pivotal moment in early 20th-century classical revivalism, balancing pastoral mythology with avant-garde simplicity. Each reproduction is meticulously rendered to preserve the delicate texture of the original impression, presented with a refined, gallery-ready presentation featuring a clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in standard proportions without cropping.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
