Daphnis en Chloë rennen op elkaar af 1937

"Daphnis en Chloë rennen op elkaar af" is a woodcut print by Aristide Maillol created in 1937. This piece, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, depicts the titular characters from the ancient Greek romance novel *Daphnis and Chloe*. The figures of Daphnis and Chloe are depicted running towards each other, their bodies and movements rendered in a simplified, almost geometric style, characteristic of Maillol's work. This work is a great example of Maillol's simplified style and his love of the human form.
