Description

Striking portrait of a wealthy young woman in a figure-hugging black satin dress by Spanish portraitist Joaquin Sorolla (1863-1923), painted in 1909. Ms Conill de Zanetti has an interesting history. According to a US Foreign Claims settlement, she married an American citizen in 1904, and at some point the couple moved to Cuba. Following Ms Conill de Zanetti's death in 1954, her descendants launched a lengthy court battled over a claim relating to property in Cuba (presumably lost during the revolution), hinging on whether or not Ms Conill de Zanetti was a Cuban or US citizen at the time of her death. The US court eventually ruled that Ms Conill de Zanetti was a Cuban citizen when she died, and in 1971 the claim was dismissed.
