Sorolla: The Masterworks Review: Somewhat overlooked Spanish genius of Realism. - Joaquin Sorolla was a genius painter who has been too much overlooked. He did a kind of realism on a par-- or better even-- than the canvases of the American J.S. Sargent and Anders Zorn of Sweden. Sorolla has a flawless gift for all the things I most value in fine painting: sincerity, perfect perspective, superb anatomy, great portrayal of motion, and a breathtakingly good colorist. Sorolla is very modern in that his paintings are emotional, and they suggest a story, but they are in no way "narrative": Sorolla keeps a cool observer's distance from his subject, with stunning, novel, asymmetrical Degas-like compositions, very new for that time. Sorolla interests me also because he was a Spaniard doing a kind of art that really wasn't in fashion at the time; while most European artists were delving into various cerebral "-isms", or adhering to the formal somber colors of the Academy style, Sorolla was following his own instincts... and the fullness of time show that he was marvelously correct in those instincts. He wasn't an Impressionist--- his canvases are way too fleshed out and explicit to be called that--- yet he borrowed the brilliant, fresh colors of the Impressionists, but plugged it into his own version of Realism. This book is an excellent, very high quality tome compiled by his granddaughter, Blanca Pons-Sorolla. If you are a serious student of art, you simply must get to know Sorolla, as he is just the quintessence of the best ideas of fine art. These pictures haven't aged a bit, and are as beautiful and inspiring as they day they were painted. Review: Beautiful book! - Sorolla was one of the greats! This book has a nice selection of his work. Really great! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #59,580 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #33 in Individual Artist Monographs #35 in Art Movements (Books) #121 in Art History (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (582) | | Dimensions | 9.78 x 1.18 x 11.31 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 0847839338 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0847839339 | | Item Weight | 3.32 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 224 pages | | Publication date | October 2, 2012 | | Publisher | Skira Rizzoli | ## Images ![Sorolla: The Masterworks - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81doDUqPHHL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Somewhat overlooked Spanish genius of Realism. *by D***S on September 4, 2013* Joaquin Sorolla was a genius painter who has been too much overlooked.
