1892‐1972 Philippine painter. Born in Paco, Manila. Graduated from the College of Art at the University of the Philippines in 1914. In 1919, he received a scholarship to study in Spain, where he studied for one year at the Royal Academy of San Fernando in Madrid. His style was heavily influenced by Spanish masters Velázquez and Impressionists such as Manet and Renoir. He left behind many genre paintings and portraits, but his most famous works are those depicting rural life. The exoticism of American colonists towards idyllic tropical rural life and the nostalgia for the good old days of Filipinos who were forced to undergo rapid change under American rule greatly influenced the tendencies of his work.

1892‐1972 フィリピンの画家。マニラ市パコの生れ。1914年にフィリピン大学芸術学部を卒業。19年に奨学金を得てスペインへ留学。マドリードのサン・フェルナンド王立学院で1年間勉強した。彼の画風にはスペインの巨匠ベラスケスとマネ,ルノアールなど印象派の影響が強い。多数の風俗画と肖像画を残しているが,代表作は農村生活を描いた風俗画である。アメリカ人植民者の熱帯の牧歌的農村生活に対するエキゾティシズムと,アメリカ支配下で急速な変化を迫られたフィリピン人の古き良き時代への郷愁が,彼の作品傾向に大きな影響を与えている。 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
