In the life of Aristide Maillol
The whole life1933
Retrospectives in New York and Basel
In 1933 two retrospective exhibitions of Maillol's work were held, in New York and in Basel.
1934
Meets Dina Vierny
In 1934 the architect Jean-Claude Dondel introduced the 73-year-old Maillol to Dina Vierny, a fifteen-year-old émigrée from Bessarabia. For ten years she was his principal model and muse — The Mountain, The River, The Air, Harmony — and through their collaboration Maillol returned to drawing from life.
1937
Recognition at the 1937 World's Fair
In 1937 Maillol's work won recognition at the World's Fair and in the new National Museum of Modern Art at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris; that same year he was made a Commander of the Legion of Honour.
