The National Museum Experience

National Museum is a place where art works are seen made by national artists for everyone to enjoy and appreciate. I will be showing you the top 8 art works that I liked.

Burning of Manila by Fernando Cueto Amorsolo Oil on masonite

I believe this artwork is a representation of the hardships that Filipinos are going through before and even today. But as you can see, there are still some people that are bringing their stuff — a sign that they are still are fighting.

Untitled (Diwata) by Guillermo E. Tolentino Reinforced concrete

This art work really caught my attention because it shows how the persona of the artwork that it's trying to portray is looking up which shows the message of being carefree.

Lost in the Forest by Carlos V. Francisco Watercolor on Paper

For me, I see a lost child in a world full of difficulties but with him is his mother looking out for him and behind him through it all just like in real life’s difficulties.

Pensive Angel by Isabelo Tampinco Y Lacandola Wood

Here I see, an angel trying to reflect and his mind’s wandering through the ambigious thoughts and things happening in life.

The Fishermen by Virgina Ty Navarro Oil on canvas

In this artwork, it shows how us Filipinos are hardworking and would thrive in order to survive despite all the troubles that they may have encounter.

Girl Reading A Book by Vidal A. Tampinco Polychrome concrete

This artwork is a girl reading a book with full of imaginations which develops her creativity. You could see how a young child’s mind is capable of great things through the imaginations the books have cost them.

Jesus Falls For The First Time by Carlos V. Francisco Oil on canvas

You can see how Jesus struggled to save our sins and even when after he fell he stood up once again and fought through it.

First Mass in Limasawa by Carlos V. Francisco Oil on canvas

This artwork shows how even during the early times, we value Jesus in our lives and practice religion in the most sincerest and intimate way possible, showing gratitude to the ones saved us from our sins.
