NEOCLASSICISM and ROMANTICISM in the Philippines
Here in the Philippines, the ideology of Neoclassicism and Romanticism can be seen through various major artworks such as
paintings, sculptures and architectural structures. Some of the well-known contributing artists express their skills and ideas in their
own respective field of specialization.
FÉLIX RESURRECCIÓN HIDALGO Y PADILLA (1855-1913)
Felix Hidalgo was one of the great Filipino painters of the late 19th century who was
significant in the Philippine history for inspiring members of the Philippine reform
movement.
 THE CHRISTIAN VIRGINS BEING EXPOSED
TO THE POPULACE
(F. Hidalgo) METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF MANILA

The painting portrays two scantily clothed Christian female slaves being mocked by a
group of boorish Roman male onlookers.
JUAN LUNA Y NOVICIO (1857-1899)
Juan Luna was a painter and sculptor, who became one of the first recognized Philippine
artists. He was also a political activist of the Philippine Revolution during the late 19th
century.
One of his famous artwork was the Spoliarium. Spoliarium is a Latin word referring to the
basement of the Roman Colosseum wherein the fallen and dying gladiators were dumped
and devoid of their worldly possessions. The painting features a glimpse of Roman history
centered on the bloody carnage brought by gladiatorial matches.

 SPOLIARIUM (J. Luna) NATIONAL MUSEUM OF

THE PHILIPPINES
The subject of Luna’s Spoliarium can be interpreted as an allegory of Imperial Rome corresponding to Imperial Spain. The
image of the Romans dragging the dead gladiators symbolizes the colonial oppression of the indigenous populations.
