La Siesta (1911) by Joaquín Sorolla
Siesta belongs to this group of paintings. Painted during the family’s summer stay in San Sebastian, this conception of this canvas shows great freedom and modernity. As in other very personal paintings (such as the The Little Sailing Boat ), Sorolla excludes the horizon and develops the whole scene at ground level so that it is much closer to the viewer.
