The canvas titled The Siesta was painted by Joaquín Sorolla in the year 1911. It is considered a masterpiece of modern Impressionism.
The fabric depicts four young maidens lying on the grass, one of them sitting up. The characters are elaborated based on spots, the effects of light and shadow with thick brushstrokes, just as the Impressionist masters from Holland and France had been doing.
The work is part of the permanent collection of the Sorolla Museum in Madrid, Spain.
