Two beached boats on pale sand as a grey-green sea comes in

Two open boats lie side by side on the pale sand, one grey-blue with a thin mast, the other green with a white gunwale; the bow of a third shows at the left edge. Behind them the sea rolls in as bands of teal and white foam under a flat grey sky, with a low mauve headland on the horizon. A wedge of ochre rock and dry grass rises at the right. Signed at the lower right.

Joaquín Sorolla (1863–1923) was the painter of Spanish sunlight. From the 1890s he worked on the beaches of Valencia, painting bathers, fishermen, sails and children in the surf with a broad, rapid touch that caught the glare of the Mediterranean, and his exhibitions in Paris, London and New York made him one of the most celebrated painters of his day. His last great work was the Vision of Spain for the Hispanic Society of America. His paintings are held by the Museo Sorolla in Madrid, the Prado and the Hispanic Society.
