From 1911 to 1919 Sorolla worked on the immense depictions of the landscape, costumes, and popular traditions of the unique regions of Spain commissioned by Archer M.Huntington for the Hispanic Society of America in New York (in situ). Painting out of doors, Sorolla vividly captured the sparkling blues of the water and golden sunlight in works such as The Return from Fishing (1894 Paris, Musée d'Orsay). Indeed, his reputation would rest instead with his renderings of Valencia's Mediterranean shore. Although these paintings made him well known, Sorolla later found the subjects sentimental. His early works such as Sad Inheritance (1899 Valencia, Caja de Ahorros de Valencia) were influenced by the art of Jules Bastien-Lepage and Adolphe von Menzel as well as by the social realism championed by his friend the novelist Vicente Blasco Ibáñez. He painted 500 works for his first one-man show at the Galeries Georges Petit in Paris in 1906, quickly followed by exhibitions in Berlin (1907), London (1908), New York (1909), Chicago, and St Louis (1909). Soon, from 1890 to 1900, Sorolla's paintings were seen in all the leading European salons. As a student, he spent time in Rome and Paris. Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida was born in Valencia.
