Fernando Amorsolo is also known as "Grand Old Man of Philippine Art". His work "The making of the Philippine Flag" is believed to have painted 10,000 pieces. The main color that are used in the painting was red, blue, yellow, and brown. The mood and visual effect of the painting can be considered as calm and serene.
The painting shows contrast of colors brown to yellow, that is not harmonious. Armorsolo made the characters and the background in his painting balanced. The color used set the moods of audience as warm because he uses brown and yellow. The yellow background symbolizes that day is a sunny day. The characters are contrasted to the background that makes it look calm and realistic. The painting is made because Fernando Armorsolo wants to remind the people on that the Philippine flag was made to show the traditions and customs that we did not realize it becomes faded.

Spoliarium is a classical painting that depicts a snippet of Roman history primarily focusing on the harsh and bloody matches of gladiators.

My interpretation of this artwork stems from my research of the topic at hand. However, I will not be covering the whole artwork, but just the chaotic side of it -- the left and center scenes.

As you can see, a bloody, possibly dead, gladiators are being dragged away from the main scene to the dark. They will be joining the countless bodies of previous gladiators that have already passed away. There are also people on the left side that are screaming for more just because of mere entertainment.

My interpretation, influenced by research, is that these men that are being dragged away represents the Filipinos that are being harassed by the Spanish colonials. Moving on, the seemingly rowdy crowd represents the "social cancer" of the time, or in other words, the unjustified treatment and the slavery that was imposed on these Filipino people.

If you look closely, there are three men sitting in the background. They are actually well known Filipinos, Juan Luna, Jose Rizal and Ariston Bautista Lin, who were all in France the moment this was created. Juan Luna, the painter himself, Jose Rizal, a hero and a famous author, and Ariston Bautista Lin, the first owner of the painting.

Interpretaion:
The woman is trying a defend herself from a Japanese soldier who is trying to 🤬 her since the woman's breast are exposed. So we can say that the soldier is acting superior. From my perspective, it shows the relationship of the Philippines and Japan. The woman represents the Philippines while the soldier represents Japan. It shows that back in that period, Philippines is powerless towards Japan. Also, Japan is greedy that's why they trying to colonize the Philippines and making Filipinos their slaves.

The Spolarium depicts an event during the Roman Empire, where bloodied bodies of gladiators, who were drawn as slaves, are dragged mercilessly away by men from the wide and powerful arena towards an unknown darkness, and where other tragically killed gladiators are brought. It currently hangs in the main gallery at the ground floor of the National Museum of Fine Arts in Manila, and is the first work of art that greets visitors upon entry into the museum.

My interpretation on the right side of the painting:
The woman sitting down on as you can see on the right side of the painting, she is interpreted as our “Inang bayan” who weeps for the Philippines. Since it represents our humanity unredeemed and injustice in the Philippines during these times.

Bahay na Bato
This building is the upgraded version of the "bahay kubo" in the pre-colonial period.

Purpose: The purpose of this art form is to shelter people from rain and sunlight, it is a type of architecture that also has the styles from the Spanish houses.

Interpretation: Bahay na bato shows the socio-economic status of the Filipinos living in it. Most people that lives in "bahay na Bato" before are the people in the middle-class while the others who are still in the lower class still lives in the traditional "Bahay kubo".

Generalization: Overall, It is just an architecture that adapted the art forms of the houses of the Spanish colonizers.

The painting painted by Fabian de la Rosa shows women who are working in the field, which is a work of a man. It shows that women have the strength and willpower to do the things that men should do. They are not living in the norms that the society has created. They voice out that they shouldn’t think of the women being the inferior, but being equal to men.

"PERILOUS NIGHT"
My opinion on perilous night by Jasper Johns is that the night is full of danger and risk that is why he used dark color and a bit touch of red in the left side of the canvas. For the right side he portrayed the danger by painting some arms that are butchered.

The painting shows that the fishermen casted their nets into the sea, and to their amazement the nets came up filled with bountiful harvest from the sea. Ang's artworks referencing parables from the bible, so therefore the reference could be alluded to the parable where Jesus asks the fishermen to drop their nets into the sea.
