Joaquín Sorolla was a Spanish painter celebrated for his luminous, sun-drenched beach scenes and portraits that capture Mediterranean light with a brilliance unmatched in European painting. Called 'the master of light,' he worked with astonishing speed and confidence, his brushwork capturing the sparkle of water, the texture of white fabric, and the joy of children at play. His monumental mural cycle 'Visions of Spain' fills an entire room at the Hispanic Society in New York.
