About the piece
Painted in 1906, Joaquín Sorolla depicts his wife, Clotilde, in a dramatic black dress accented by a single yellow flower. This masterful work showcases Sorolla's exceptional handling of light and texture, using bold brushstrokes to define the heavy fabric against a muted, scholarly interior background.
