You will find it alternately called “Beach at Velencia” or “Afternoon Sun” http://www.the-athenaeum.org/art/full.php?ID=8350

We recently saw a breathtaking show of Sorolla’s murals of life in Spain in MÃ¡laga. The works are scheduled to return to The Hispanic Society of America (a free museum and reference library for the study of the arts and cultures of Spain, Portugal, and Latin America, located on Audubon Terrace, Broadway between 155 and 156 Streets, NYC – 212-926-2234) early in 2010. We will definitely plan to revisit his work at the first opportunity.

You have written an excellent description of Sorolla’s unique approach to outdoor painting. To quote Edmund Peel’s book “Ever since I began to paint”, he (Sorolla) confided, “my obsession was to destroy all conventionalism”.

Nice article here- really helped on research I’ve been doing for a presentation. I like that you mention that the title “impressionsist” is somewhat innaccurate. Great work!
