Joaquín Sorolla

(1863-1923) A lover of open-air painting, light, and the colors of the Mediterranean, Sorolla is the maximum expression of Spanish luminism. His fame soon spread beyond Spanish borders to Europe and the United States, where he exhibited on several occasions.

Sorolla is known for painting in an impressionistic way, both sea scenes and landscapes, for him nature was his workshop and inspiration. In addition, he became the most sought-after portraitist of the time, from the royal family to the personalities of politics, the arts or the economy.
