Museo Sorolla Review

See the world through the exceptional eye of Spain's most famous Impressionist painter, Joaquín Sorolla (1863-1923), who lived and worked most of his life at the home and garden he designed. Entering this diminutive but cozy domain is a little like stepping into a Sorolla painting because it's filled with the artist's best-known works, most of which shimmer with the bright Mediterranean light and color of his native Valencia.

    Very fine little museum in the artist's last place of residence. Very good quality paintings, and the house and gardens are delightful. Definitely worth seeking out.
