A native of Valencia, Spanish Impressionist Joaqu n 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 sun-drenched 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Blanca Pons-Sorolla, V駻onique Gerard-Powell, Dominique Lobstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0847848353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780847848355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Skira Rizzoli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.30h x 9.80w x 1.00d","brand":"Blanca Pons-Sorolla","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44044548931839,"sku":"9780847848355","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_124e774c-2649-4bf0-83b1-d3cb2d65c46b.jpg?v=1684973493","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sorolla-and-the-paris-years-blanca-pons-sorolla-9780847848355","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
