A native of Valencia, Spanish Impressionist Joaquin Sorolla
(1863-1923) first went to Paris in 1885 as a young artist at the
age of twenty-three. He exhibited at the international salons,
winning the Grand Prix at the Exposition Universelle in 1900, and
in 1906, he exhibited for the first time at the Galerie Georges
Petit, one of the principal galleries of the Impressionists. The
exhibition was a resounding success and helped establish Sorolla's
international reputation. Known for his vigorous compositions,
unusual color palette, and loose, radiant brush strokes, Sorolla's
sundrenched landscapes, beach scenes, and luminous portraits even
impressed such contemporaries as Claude Monet. Richly illustrated
and with newly researched essays by noted scholars, this important
book reveals much new information about Sorolla's activities and
relationships with other artists in Europe. Included are more than
one hundred paintings reflecting the artist's career, from his
early work in Paris in which the influence of the French
Impressionists is clearly evident, to the distinctive pictures that
reflect his mature and celebrated style.
