What’s In
Neoclassicism 1780-1840, the word neoclassic came from the Greek word neos
meaning “new” and Latin word classicus which is similar in the meaning to the English
phrase “first class.” The Western movement in decorative and visual arts was called
Neoclassicism. It also applies to literature, theater, music and architecture that were
influenced by the classical art and culture of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.
Romanticism 1800’s-1810’s, was a movement in which the artist of Neoclassical
period sought to break new ground in the expression of emotion, both subtle and stormy.
It embraced a number of distinctive themes, such as a longing for history, supernatural
elements, social injustices, and nature.

What Is It
Gothic Revival Architecture (Neogothic)
Gothic Revival, also referred to as Victorian Gothic or Neo-Gothic, is an
architectural movement that began in the 1740s in England. Indeed, heavily castellated
Neogothic buildings have been often referred to as “castles,” even though they never
served as a defensive structure. Among them was Strawberry Hills ( demolished and
restored), the most famous work of the decorative phase of the Gothic Revival.
Gothic Revival became widely used for churches and civic building throughout
the West, especially in Britain and the United States. Bricks and stones were both
commonly used.
Architects who used Neogothic Style:
1. Charles Barry – was the name behind Britain’s foremost Gothic Revival
monument, the Westminster Palace (a.k.a. the Houses of Parliament).
WESTMINSTER PALACE (LONDON)

2. James Renwick – crowning American work: the St. Patrick’s Cathedral (New York).
NEO-CLASSICISM and ROMANTICISM in the Philippines
Here in the Philippines, the ideology of Neoclassicism and Romanticism can be
seen through various major artworks such as paintings, sculptures, and architectures.
Some of the well-known contributing artist express their skills and ideas in their own
respective field of specialization.
Felix Resurrection Hidalgo y Padilla (1855-1913) – was one of the great Filipino
painters of the late 19th century who was significant in the Philippine history for inspiring
members of the Philippine reform movement. The painting portrays two scantily clothed
Christian females slaves mocked by a group of boorish Roman male onlookers.
4
Juan Luna y Novicio (1857-1899) - was a painter and sculptor, who became one of the
first recognized Philippine artists. Also a political activist of the Philippine revolution
during the late 19th century. One of his famous artwork was the Spoliarium, a Latin word
referring to the basement of the colosseum wherein the fallen and dying gladiators were
dumped and devoid of their worldly possessions. The subject of Luna’s Spoliarium can
be interpreted as an allegory of Imperial Rome corresponding to Imperial Spain.
Fernando Cueto Amorsolo (1892-1972) – was a national artist in Painting. He was a
portraitist and painter of rural Philippine landscapes, and he was popularly known for
hiscraftsmanship and mastery of the use of light.
5
Guillermo Estrella Tolentino (1890-1976) – is a Filipino sculptors who was named
national Artist for the Visual Arts in 1973, and is hailed as the “Father of Philppine Arts.”
Famous Artworks:
1. The Original Oblation at the 3rd floor of the Main Library of U.P. Diliman
2. Pambansang Bantayog ni Adres Bonifacio

Region IX our Eden Land
My Final Farewell
Farewell, dear Fatherland, clime of the sun caress'd
Pearl of the Orient seas, our Eden lost!,
Gladly now I go to give thee this faded life's best,
And were it brighter, fresher, or more blest
Still would I give it thee, nor count the cost.
On the field of battle, 'mid the frenzy of fight,
Others have given their lives, without doubt or heed;
The place matters not-cypress or laurel or lily white,
Scaffold or open plain, combat or martyrdom's plight,
T is ever the same, to serve our home and country's need.
I die just when I see the dawn break,
Through the gloom of night, to herald the day;
And if color is lacking my blood thou shalt take,
Pour'd out at need for thy dear sake
To dye with its crimson the waking ray.
My dreams, when life first opened to me,
My dreams, when the hopes of youth beat high,
Were to see thy lov'd face, O gem of the Orient sea
From gloom and grief, from care and sorrow free;
No blush on thy brow, no tear in thine eye.
Dream of my life, my living and burning desire,
All hail ! cries the soul that is now to take flight;
All hail ! And sweet it is for thee to expire ;
To die for thy sake, that thou mayst aspire;
And sleep in thy bosom eternity's long night.
If over my grave some day thou seest grow,
In the grassy sod, a humble flower,
Draw it to thy lips and kiss my soul so,
While I may feel on my brow in the cold tomb below
The touch of thy tenderness, thy breath's warm power.
Let the moon beam over me soft and serene,
Let the dawn shed over me its radiant flashes,
Let the wind with sad lament over me keen ;
And if on my cross a bird should be seen,
Let it trill there its hymn of peace to my ashes.
Let the sun draw the vapors up to the sky,
And heavenward in purity bear my tardy protest
Let some kind soul o 'er my untimely fate sigh,
And in the still evening a prayer be lifted on high
From thee, 0 my country, that in God I may rest.
Pray for all those that hapless have died,
For all who have suffered the unmeasur'd pain;
For our mothers that bitterly their woes have cried,
For widows and orphans, for captives by torture tried
And then for thyself that redemption thou mayst gain
And when the dark night wraps the graveyard around
With only the dead in their vigil to see
Break not my repose or the mystery profound
And perchance thou mayst hear a sad hymn resound
'T is I, O my country, raising a song unto thee.
And even my grave is remembered no more
Unmark'd by never a cross nor a stone
Let the plow sweep through it, the spade turn it o'er
That my ashes may carpet earthly floor,
Before into nothingness at last they are blown.
Then will oblivion bring to me no care
As over thy vales and plains I sweep;
Throbbing and cleansed in thy space and air
With color and light, with song and lament I fare,
Ever repeating the faith that I keep.
My Fatherland ador'd, that sadness to my sorrow lends
Beloved Filipinas, hear now my last good-by!
I give thee all: parents and kindred and friends
For I go where no slave before the oppressor bends,
Where faith can never kill, and God reigns e'er on high!
Farewell to you all, from my soul torn away,
Friends of my childhood in the home dispossessed!
Give thanks that I rest from the wearisome day!
Farewell to thee, too, sweet friend that lightened my way; Beloved creatures all,
farewell! In death there is rest!
I Am a Filipino, by Carlos P. Romulo
I am a Filipino–inheritor of a glorious past, hostage to the uncertain future. As
such I must prove equal to a two-fold task–the task of meeting my responsibility
to the past, and the task of performing my obligation to the future.
I sprung from a hardy race, child many generations removed of ancient Malayan
pioneers. Across the centuries the memory comes rushing back to me: of brownskinned men putting out to sea in ships that were as frail as their hearts were
stout. Over the sea I see them come, borne upon the billowing wave and the
whistling wind, carried upon the mighty swell of hope–hope in the free
abundance of new land that was to be their home and their children’s forever.
I am a Filipino. In my blood runs the immortal seed of heroes–seed that flowered
down the centuries in deeds of courage and defiance. In my veins yet pulses the
same hot blood that sent Lapulapu to battle against the first invader of this land,
that nerved Lakandula in the combat against the alien foe, that drove Diego
Silang and Dagohoy into rebellion against the foreign oppressor.
The seed I bear within me is an immortal seed. It is the mark of my manhood, the
symbol of dignity as a human being. Like the seeds that were once buried in the
tomb of Tutankhamen many thousand years ago, it shall grow and flower and
bear fruit again. It is the insignia of my race, and my generation is but a stage in
the unending search of my people for freedom and happiness.
1
I am a Filipino, child of the marriage of the East and the West. The East, with its
languor and mysticism, its passivity and endurance, was my mother, and my sire
was the West that came thundering across the seas with the Cross and Sword and
the Machine. I am of the East, an eager participant in its spirit, and in its struggles
for liberation from the imperialist yoke. But I also know that the East must awake
from its centuried sleep, shake off the lethargy that has bound his limbs, and start
moving where destiny awaits.
I am a Filipino, and this is my inheritance. What pledge shall I give that I may
prove worthy of my inheritance? I shall give the pledge that has come ringing
down the corridors of the centuries, and it shall be compounded of the joyous
cries of my Malayan forebears when first they saw the contours of this land loom
before their eyes, of the battle cries that have resounded in every field of combat
from Mactan to Tirad Pass, of the voices of my people when they sing:
“I am a Filipino born to freedom, and I shall not rest until freedom shall have
been added unto my inheritance—for myself and my children and my children’s
children—forever.”
