This creation is a good example of sculptural composition
and ornamental wealth. Worth highlighting is the
meticulous bas relief handwork to recreate the embroidery
of the lady’s dress and shawl, the patterns on her parasol
and the etchings on the boat, conveying so well the grain
and texture of wood.
A creation dominated by white, the color so closely
associated with the work of Sorolla, pastel tones and the
flowers, handmade petal by petal.
Art inspires art. That is the case of this composition which
borrows its reference from the work of Sorolla, the celebrated
impressionist known as the "painter of light". Born in the
coastal city of Valencia, Spain, this painter of genre scenes,
seascapes and landscapes made a name thanks to the
intensity of light in his work and his ability to capture sunlight
and shadows. This is the Sorolla that inspired this scene of a
couple on a romantic boat ride.
