All of these pieces in the 'Vision Spain" murals at New York's Hispanic Society of America, were just uploaded on 7 May 2022. The have not been easily available elsewhere. I traveled to New York in December and hoped to photograph them myself, but the museum was closed for restorations! Imagine my delight in finding them uploaded last week.

I have turned up this article of photos of paintings matched with photos of ballet dancers, performing "Sorolla" - a production of the Spanish National Ballet -

"A colorful and evocative work was brought literally to life by the Spanish National Ballet in their production appropriately named 'Sorolla'. A spectacle of color and light, the dance production was based on a collection of paintings that Sorolla was commissioned to do by The Hispanic Society of America in New York. The paintings were representative of many of the cultures and traditions of various parts of Spain. Some are what people think of as typically Spanish like bullfighters and flamenco dancing. Others were not stereotypical Spain."
