Klappentext

This first volume of the catalogue raisonné of Joaquín Sorolla Bastida's paintings includes 1,063 works produced between 1876 and 1894.

This first volume of the catalogue raisonné of Joaquín Sorolla Bastida's paintings includes 1,063 works, with their corresponding illustrated technical data sheets, which he produced between 1876 and 1894, when he created La vuelta de la pesca (The Return from Fishing). This painting encapsulates the vision of painting that was being awarded prizes at international exhibitions and for which the painter of the light is not so well known. However, it is exciting to see the process behind this series of paintings, which, as it matures, exudes technical and stylistic ease.

For this reason, the Sorolla we discover in this volume, new to many and broader than we thought, aims to continue to fascinate the public and open up new lines of research and study.
