Short description
An example of the good academic training achieved by the most notable Filipino artists of the Fine Arts of Manila, is this work due to an artist of whom we hardly have news and who, halfway between manners and landscaping, places the scene in the house that the Franciscan order had in the capital, whose foundation dates back to the end of the 16th century due to the evangelizations carried out by the friars of the province established since 1490 in the old monastery of Santa María de los Ángeles in Hornachuelos (Córdoba ).

Sensitive Content
Mapping Philippine Material Culture collates digital material from institutions, and some of this material is inherently colonial and contains words, terms and phrases that are inaccurate, derogatory and harmful towards Filipino and Filipino diasporic communities. Catalogue transcriptions, book titles, exhibition titles and museum titles may contain harmful terms. We recognise the potential for the material to cause physical and mental distress as well as evoke strong emotions. Owing to the scale of the collection’s data, a process to implement sensitive-content warnings in the displayed data is still incomplete. The material within the catalogue does not represent Mapping Philippine Material Culture’s views. Mapping Philippine Material Culture maintains a strong anti-colonial, anti-racist position and affirms its support for centring the humanity of historically marginalised and disenfranchised communities.
