The Return from Fishing of 1905 Canvas Print

This is a reproduction of “The Return from Fishing” by Juaquin Sorolla of 1905. Sorolla was born in Valencia in 1863. Orphaned at the age of two, he began studying painting in 1877 and went to Madrid four years later to study in the Museo del Prado. In 1885 he moved to Rome and Paris. He returned to Spain in 1890 and within three years was the acknowledged leader of the Spanish modern movement. He maintained that position with prodigious creativity until he suffered a stroke in 1920. He died three years later. This particular work wonderfully displays Sorolla’s ability to express costumbrismo, the display of local mannerisms, customs and everyday life. It measures 265 by 325 centimeters and is currently in in the Musee d’Orsay.
