SDXL Base 1.0 Kappa_Neuro John Singer Sargent Style John Singer Sargent Style - a 1909 impressionist painting in the style of Joaquin Sorolla The women depicted in life-size are Sorolla's wife Clotilde and his eldest daughter Maria. The painting was created at Playa de El Cabanyal beach in Sorolla's hometown of Valencia. Both women lean slightly forward giving the impression of movement towards the right edge. Clotilde is standing straight while Maria has turned her head slightly to the right and is looking towards the viewer. Both mother and daughter are wearing long white sundresses with elegant presentation including a straw hat and parasol for Clotilde. Maria's dress emphasizes her slender silhouette with a stand-up collar and transparent white cloth sleeves. Clotilde's dress has cropped sleeves and is accented with a white belt. The sea wind creates arabesques behind Maria's dress. Maria holds a yellow straw hat with a wide brim decorated with purple flowers and a turquoise bow. Clotilde holds an open white parasol angled to the ground on the left side. Both women wear elegant white women's shoes with small heels. The painting features an ocher expanse of sand in the foreground with the women standing a few meters from the sea. The sand is depicted in short strokes and there is a seamless transition from the beach to the sea. The viewer's perspective is slightly raised with no visible horizon. The beach and the sea form a background with a wave of white foam at the top of the screen. The sea shimmers in different shades of blue which Sorolla applied in elongated brushstrokes. The dominant color of the image is the white of the dress and parasol mixed with blue yellow lilac and orange shades. The lighting in the painting is characteristic of early evening on a summer day in the Mediterranean with the sun appearing from the direction of the viewer casting long shadows behind the women. The painting is representative of Luminismo a form of Neo-Impressionism that originated in Spain resulting from Impressionism.
