Joaquín Sorolla, the Valencian painter, painted ‘Componiendo la red’ in 1902.
The painting depicts a preindustrial costumbrista scene, with a marine landscape in the background. That seascape is rendered with pronounced luminous intensity.
The work reflects Sorolla’s technical command and impressionist experimentation.
