Sinopsis
Sorolla's painting output encompasses 4,200 works in oil, water color and gouache. Blanca Pons-Sorolla
has spent more than 3 decades recording, studying and systematically cataloguing this vast oeuvre and
organising it into a chronological catalogue raisonné. The first instalment of this several-volume work was
issued in 2019, dovetailing with the time when this painter garnered international recognition through the
monographic expositions at the National Gallery of London and the National Gallery of Ireland in Dublin.
The need to revise the Museo Sorolla's
catalogue led the publication of the catalogue
raisonné to start with the important set
of works that this institution harbours, which
are essential to understanding the artist from
Valencia. Preliminary volume includes not
only almost 1,300 paintings from the museum
but also an exhaustive biographical timeline
of the artist, a general updated bibliography
on the painter, a list of his exhibitions
and a methodological introduction on how
his paintings were catalogued. Consequently,
this will serve as the reference volume for
the rest of Sorolla's catalogue raisonné.
