SOROLLA, walk on the beach

A painter of light, Joaquín Sorolla is one of the great names on the 20th-century Spanish art scene. Somewhere between realism and lyricism, this immersive exhibition offers visitors a chance to understand how this painter captured the sensitive richness of the seaside.

The exhibition retraces the whole of his work: from his regionalist interpretation of Spain, to his family portraits, landscapes and gardens, via the beaches that have made him a major international reference. His luminous brushstrokes magnify the simplicity of everyday life and intimacy, taking visitors on a highly sensitive tour of Spain.
