After decades of being in New York City, Joaquín Soroya¿s works return to Seville, the city that inspired them. The exhibit Sorolla. Visión de España (Sorolla. Vision of Spain) will be inaugurated on April 24 and will remain open until June 29 at the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville. Later, these works will be exhibited in the cities of Málaga, Bilbao, Barcelona, Madrid, and Valencia ¿ where they had been exhibited previously ¿ before the works are returned to the Hispanic Society of America in New York. A cooperative agreement between Bancaja and the Ministry of Culture had made possible the carrying out of this exhibit, notwithstanding the complexities involved in transporting the works from New York to Seville, where security and conservation measures had to be taken. The 14 oil-painted panels were commissioned by Archer Milton Huntington, the founder of the Hispanic Society of America in 1911. Huntington commissioned Sorolla with the decoration of a large rectangular salon, employing a series of panes illustrating the regions of Spain and its landscapes that captured the customs of the period and its people. Sorolla, rendered by the artist in 1919, was the last work in the series. The result was a room that was named after the artist and that is adorned with 14 works that not only show the culture of Spain, but also that of Latin America.. The titles of these works are telling: Sevilla. Los Nazarenos (Seville. The Nazarenes); Andalucía: El Encierro (Andalucía. The Running of Bulls); Sevilla. El Baile (Seville. The Dance); Sevilla. Los Toreros (Seville. The Bullfighters); Ayamonte. La Pesca del Atún (Ayamonte. Tuna Fishing); Castilla. La Fiesta del Pan (Castilla. The Bread Fiesta); Aragón. La Jota (Aragón. The Jota Dance); Navarra. El Consejo del Roncál (Navarra. The Council of Roncál); Guipúzcoa. Los Bolos (Guipúzcoa. Bowling); Galicia. La Romería (Galicia. The Pilgrimage); Cataluña. El Pescado (Cataluña. The Fish); Valencia. Las Grupas (Valencia. The Gathering); Extremadura. El Mercado (Extremadura. The Market), and Elche. El Palmeral. (Elche. The Palm Grove). The Museum of Fine Arts in Seville is located at the Plaza del Museo and opens on every Tuesday from 2:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday from 9:00 a-m. to 8:30 p-m., and Sundays and holidays from 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
