    Juan Luna (1857-1899)

    Juan Luna was one of the first famous Filipino


    painters who gained international recognition.
    His passion for painting started in 1878 with
    the Exposición Nacional de Bellas Artes (National Demonstration of Fine
    Arts). This famous Filipino artist in the Philippines has a well-known
    masterpiece, the Spoliarium, which won the gold medal at the 1884 Madrid
    Exposition of Fine Arts. The painting which depicts dying gladiators is
    currently displayed in the main gallery of the National Museum. His other
    notable works include La Bulaqueña, The Battle of Lepanto, The Death of
    Cleopatra, The Parisian Life, and The Blood Compact which is now
    displayed in Malacanang.
    Félix Resurrección Hidalgo
    (1855-1913)

    Hidalgo studied at the School of Fine Arts in


    Madrid and later built a gallery in Paris after
    his studies. Together with Luna, they were
    famous Filipino painters during the Spanish rule in the country. He won a
    silver medal with his painting Las Virgenes Cristianas Expuestas al
    Populacho at the 1884 Madrid Exposition of Fine Arts, the same contest
    where Luna won the gold award. This oil on canvas painting by this
    famous artist is now part of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas collection.
    Hidalgo also painted El Violinista, La Barca de Aqueronte, and El Asesinato
    del Gobernador Bustamante.
    Fernando Amorsolo
    (1892-1972)

    Amorsolo was the country’s first National


    Artist. He was recognized as the Grand Old
    Man of Philippine Art. Like other famous
    Filipino painters, Amorsolo developed his
    technique. He masterfully utilized natural light in his landscape paintings
    which portrayed Filipino customs, fiestas, and culture. He also did self-
    portraits, wartime scenes, and oil portraits of Philippine presidents. He
    taught and became director of the College of Fine Arts at the University of
    the Philippines. Some of the paintings included in the collection of this
    famous Filipino artist include Rice Planting, Sunday Morning Going to
    Town, The Mestiza, and Dalagang Bukid.
    Anita Magsaysay-Ho
    (1914-2012)

    Magsaysay-Ho was a cousin of former


    President Ramon Magsaysay. She was the
    only female member of the group of Filipino
    artists called Thirteen Moderns. If you want to purchase artworks by
    famous Filipino painters that feature women, then look for Magsaysay-Ho’s
    creations. She painted women with slanted eyes, morena skin, high
    cheekbones, and performing works like harvesting, cooking, sheaving
    grain, or selling fish. Among her major works are Women with Flowers, Fish
    Vendors, Fruit Market, Harvest, and Two Mothers.
    Vicente Manansala
    (1910-1981)

    He was a National Artist of the Philippines


    in Visual Arts. Manansala was a cubist painter
    whose works depicted the realities of life in
    the country like culture and poverty. He was a member of the group of
    artists known as the Thirteen Moderns together with other famous Filipino
    painters. Among his famous paintings include The Bird Seller, Madonna of
    the Slums, Candle Vendors, and Still Life.
