BACKGROUND OF THE AUTHOR
• at age 13, he began working as an apprentice for his mother's first cousin, the
renowned Filipino artist Fabian de la Rosa. Amorsolo began his education in
1909 at the Liceo de Manila before enrolling in the University of the
Philippines' fine arts program, from which he graduated in 1914. He spent
three years working as a commercial artist and adjunct professor at the
university before enrolling in the Escuela de San Fernando in Madrid to further
his education. He sketched for seven months, experimenting with the use of
light and color in the museums and on the city's streets. That winter, he
traveled to New York and came across the cubist and post-impressionist art,
which had a significant influence on his own work. After arriving back in
Manila, he opened his own studio.
