关于作品
博物馆的介绍 — 西班牙语
Un hombre y una mujer sentados en un sofá, del que vemos el apoyabrazos en primer término. Tras éste, la mujer, de perfil, con abrigo representado en negro mediante trazos muy marcados y nerviosos. Lleva además sombrero de ala levantada y cuya copa se ha destacado en rojo, mientras que en la parte trasera tiene un adorno de tela o plumas. El hombre, sentado a su derecha, se gira para charlar con ella y lo vemos de frente, aunque el rostro está sólo insinuado con sombras.

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.
