"After Bathing," Joaquin Sorolla, 1915.

Spaniard Sorolla gave us many paintings in the Impressionist style, of sunlit beaches and landscapes in Spain. He also did many monumental works with social and historical themes.

From the Museo Sorolla, Madrid.

"The Young Decadent. After the Ball," Ramon Casas, 1899.

This young lady seems a bit tired, but look closer. She's reading a book with a yellow cover, a sort of code that it's by a Decadent or sinful author. The Yellow Book was a periodical that featured Decadent writing. Yellow became associated with pulpy or extreme writing; in Italy there's a whole genre of slasher films called "giallo" or "yellow" with the same association.

From the Museum of Monserrat, Spain.

Leafing through Brassai's book of photographs of artists, just came across this great 1955 photo of Joan Miro at the Barcelona Maritime Museum.

The wooden pully blocks arranged on the wall look like they could be a Miro painting.... great photo

"Parisian Boulevard," Ramon Pichot i Gironès, 1898/1901. The darkness gathers as various figures walk along a tree-lined street illuminated by lanterns. A Catalan Impressionist, Pichot was an early mentor to Salvador Dali and a friend to Picasso and Gertrude Stein.
