Juan Luna (1857–1899)
Probably the most famous Filipino artist in history due to his political activism and involvement in the revolution in 1898, Juan Luna’s most famous painting is the Spolarium. I’ve personally seen it, I was 14 years old and it was indeed majestic, spectacular and very dramatic. His art style is normally symbolismwith elements of romanticism.
