Sorolla often used his family members as models for his paintings. A particular favorite of collectors was his daughter Maria who the family jokingly referred to as "the breadwinner". As typical in Sorolla's paintings his daughter Maria walks in the foreground and competes with the dazzling reflections on the water in the background.
