Sobre a obra
Nas palavras do museu — em espanhol
En el centro, muro en escorzo con abertura en el centro y remate de bola en los extremos. A la derecha se insinúan varios personajes y lo que parece una puerta, todo tachado con líneas en zig-zag. A la izquierda, una figura femenina cubierta con mantilla camina hacia la izquierda.

Second US visit: St. Louis and Chicago
Sorolla visited the United States a second time and showed 152 new paintings at the Saint Louis Art Museum and, a few weeks later, 161 at the Art Institute of Chicago.

Through the provinces of Spain to paint from life
Huntington had envisioned a history of Spain; Sorolla preferred a “Vision of Spain” and finally images of the regions of the peninsula, “The Provinces of Spain”. He painted all but one of the huge canvases en plein air, travelling to Navarre, Aragon, Catalonia, Valencia, Elche, Seville, Andalusia, Extremadura, Galicia, Guipúzcoa, Castile, León and Ayamonte and posing models in local costume.
