Description

Joaquín Sorolla (born in Valencia 1863 - died in Cercedilla 1923) is one of the most successful Spanish painters ever. He was a genius in capturing the essence of the scene he was painting.

 

Joaquín Sorolla painted the most wonderful beach scenes. Every year he visited his native Valencia with its wonderful beaches and dazzling sunlight. He lived while photography was being invented and popularized. Some of his breathtaking beach scenes show how he was familiar with and employed similar techniques as the photograph. His beach paintings became enormously popular and are in many great museums.

 

In the course of preparing for his grand masterpiece “The Vision of Spain”, which hangs in the Hispanic Society of America, Sorolla also visited many places of Spain. Here he painted types of people and local dress which made up his vision of Spain, diverse and colorful yet united.

Enjoy this splendid beach trip!
