Description

Rare first edition of Judith Cladel’s important biographical study of French sculptor Aristide Maillol, published in Paris in 1937.
This copy is personally signed and inscribed by the author—a scarce and highly desirable feature, as Cladel’s signed works seldom appear on the market.

Judith Cladel was a notable French playwright, novelist, journalist, and respected biographer. She was particularly known for her close connections with major artists of her time, giving her work significant historical and documentary value.

A collector’s item for enthusiasts of Maillol, 20th-century French art, and signed literary works.
