Basic Assumption of Arts
In this picture we can see side by side on how the spoliarium was
inspired and how it was first made in its boceto(sketch) before it final
artwork. In the year Spoliarium was made, Philippines were ruled by
the Spaniards. As time passes by Philippine nationalism rise as well as
the Katipunan, who then started the Philippine revolution. Hence, the
Spanish-American War began. We reign victorious of that war with the
help of the Americans but, later on another battle will took place. It is
also believe that in those years, that we Pilipino’s was inferior to
Spaniards but, Juan Luna and his friend Felix Hidalgo, prove that we
are no inferior to anyone, we are on equal footing.
