Madrid, Spanien
Ejeren er kendt. Om det er udstillet i dag, siger museet ikke, og at gætte har vi ikke lært.
A la derecha, una construcción arquitectónica a la que se accede por dos escalones brevemente representados. Tiene toldo y bajo él, una puerta que parece adintelada. Los dos paramentos a ambos lados de la puerta tienen ligeros toques con el lápiz, lo que quizás indica los reflejos de un escaparate. A la izquierda, unos rasguños.

“A Research”: the Prize of Honour in Madrid
Two paintings linking art and science, “Portrait of Dr. Simarro at the Microscope” and “A Research”, won Sorolla the Prize of Honour at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts. He showed his friend Simarro in the laboratory, catching the contrast between the reddish-yellow light of a gas burner and the weak mauvish light from the window.
