Over het werk
In de woorden van het museum — in het Spaans
Figura masculina de pie, de cuerpo entero, en pose de tres cuartos hacia la izquierda. Lleva gorra a la cabeza y pañuelo o bufanda anudado al cuello. Frente a él, lo que parece una olla o una cesta sobre un trípode. Al fondo, insinuación de paisaje. Parece un castañero.

Het hele leven1885
A four-year grant to study in Rome
Having completed his military service, the twenty-two-year-old Sorolla received a grant from the Spanish Academy in Rome for four years of study in Italy. In Rome he was welcomed by the academy’s director, Francisco Pradilla, in whose example the young painter found stability.

Paris: his first encounter with modern painting
A long stay in Paris gave him his first exposure to modern painting; he was especially struck by exhibitions of Jules Bastien-Lepage and Adolph von Menzel. Back in Rome he studied with José Benlliure, Emilio Sala and José Villegas Cordero.
1888

Sorolla returned to Valencia to marry Clotilde García del Castillo; by 1895 they had three children — María, Joaquín and Elena.
