The Wounded Foot (Spanish: La Herida del Pie) is a painting by the Spanish artist Joaquín Sorolla, created in 1909. The work depicts an intimate scene on the beach, where a young boy with an injured foot is being cared for. In this painting, Sorolla combines his love for light and the sea with an emotional and everyday moment.

The painting shows three figures: a boy sitting on the ground, a woman—likely his mother—bandaging his foot, and a small child watching curiously. They are on a beach, with the sea and sky forming a soft, serene background. The composition is carefully arranged to keep the focus on the interaction between the characters.

Sorolla’s signature use of light is prominently displayed. Sunlight reflects on the skin, clothing, and sand, evoking the warmth of a summer day. His brushstrokes are fluid and loose, giving the painting a lively and dynamic appearance.

The emotions in the scene are subtle yet powerful. The nurturing posture of the woman and the calm expression of the boy convey a sense of intimacy and compassion. The scene feels like a genuine moment from everyday life, free of embellishment or dramatization.

Sorolla was a master at depicting light and water, which is evident here. The reflections in the wet sand and the movement of the waves in the background add depth and realism to the painting. At the same time, the work has a soft, almost dreamlike quality.

The Wounded Foot fits into a series of beach scenes Sorolla painted throughout his career. He was captivated by coastal life and skillfully captured its everyday beauty in his work.

The painting can also be interpreted as a tribute to care and love within a family. It highlights how small moments of attention and compassion hold deep emotional significance.

Today, The Wounded Foot is considered one of Sorolla’s masterpieces. It is housed in the Museo Sorolla in Madrid, a museum dedicated to the life and work of the artist. Visitors are drawn to the warmth, light, and humanity radiating from the painting—hallmarks of Sorolla’s distinctive style and vision.
