2023: AÑO SOROLLA

Una biografía única. Una mirada audaz sobre uno de los más grandes pintores españoles y su tiempo.

«Quien busque una biografía de Sorolla y de su época encontrará en este libro una novela apasionante y magníficamente escrita. Y quien busque una novela apasionante encontrará al mismo tiempo una biografía tan rigurosa como amena . -Luis Landero, Premio Nacional de las Letras Españolas

La obra de Joaquín Sorolla es una de las más populares de la historia del arte español. Paradójicamente, su apasionante vida es poco conocida. Requerido por las élites sociales e intelectuales de Europa y América, fue uno de los grandes artistas de su época, que triunfó en los salones de París y en la emergente Nueva York. Habitó el fascinante mundo de finales del siglo XIX e inicios del XX, con el desarrollo de la modernidad y la llegada de los grandes inventos. Vivió el desenfreno de la Belle Époque, el Madrid de las tertulias y zarzuelas, y las tribulaciones de la generación del 98, que criticó la «alegría de vivir de sus cuadros.

Trabajador incansable, discreto, ambicioso y exigente consigo mismo, sus mayores deseos eran pintar a todas horas y estar con su familia. Su historia es la de un hombre de éxito que hubiera preferido una existencia anodina. Una vida extraordinaria con un final desgraciado.

Cómo se forjó su carácter? De dónde provenía su don? Cómo era la España que vio y plasmó en sus cuadros? Cómo logró mantener vivo el amor por su mujer desde la adolescencia? César Suárez combina biografía, ensayo y ficción en este libro que muestra una visión audaz de Joaquín Sorolla y de su tiempo. Un recorrido por escenas de la vida del artista que, tal vez, podrían servirnos de inspiración para la nuestra.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

2023: THE YEAR OF SOROLLA

A unique biography. An audacious look into one of the greatest Spanish painters and his time.

Joaquín Sorolla's is one of the most popular works in the history of Spanish art. Paradoxically, little is known of his fascinating life. Wanted by every social and intellectual elite in Europe and the American continent, he was one of the greatest artists of his time, and triumphed both in the Paris halls and the burgeoning New York. He lived in the fascinating world at the end of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with modernity in development and the arrival of magnificent inventions. Sorolla experienced the revelry of the Belle Époque, a Madrid of coteries and zarzuela, and the tribulations of the '98 Spanish literary generation, which judged the "joie de vivre" in his paintings.

Tireless worker, discreet, ambitious, and demanding of himself, his greatest desire was to paint all day and be with his family. This is the story of a successful man who would have preferred an unremarkable life. An extraordinary life with a miserable ending.

How was his character forged? Where did his gift come from? How was the Spain he saw and painted in his pictures? How did he manage to keep the love for his wife kindling since their teenage years? César Suárez combines biography, essay, and fiction in a book that portrays a bold vision of Joaquín Sorolla and his time. A walk through scenes from the artist's life that might serve as inspiration for our own.
