Garvey 174; Garvey Wick 22; BNF32393010. According to Eleanor Garvey "The Artist and the Book" p. 122 this work is "perhaps the most harmonious of Maillol's illustrated books." An ancient Greek novel written during the Roman Empire the only known work of the 2nd century CE Greek novelist and romance writer Longus translated by George Thornley in 1657 the story of Daphnis and Chloe inspired the French-Catalan sculptor Aristide Maillol 1861-1944 to create an extensive set of sometimes mischievous woodcuts of nymphs and lovers using the same classical lines that typify his sculpture. The format of the book is particularly suited "to the black and white balance of the decorated page" François Chapon. The images the luscious hand-made paper the sensual tone of the engravings all contribute to this piquant book meant to educate and titillate the "young beauties" to whom the book is dedicated. The Epistle Dedicatory reads "To Young Beauties". "The ceremonies customes & manners of the ancient Greekes; with delightfull interspersion of their old and sweet Tales: And in short; nothing to vex you unless perchance in your own conscience. A.
