José Rizal (1861-1896) is one of the most revered figures
in Philippine history. He was a multifaceted intellectual and a political activist, best known for his political writings that inspired the Philippine revolution and ultimately led to his execution by the Spanish colonizers. Amorsolo is best known for his illuminated landscapes, which often portrayed traditional Filipino customs, culture, fiestas and occupations. His pastoral works presented "an imagined sense of nationhood in counterpoint to American colonial rule" and were important to the formation of Filipino national identity. Dwoven banig bags are one of the most popular fashion pieces from the Philippines and for a good reason. These native straw bags made from tikog, pandan, and straw leaves have transitioned from being just a Filipino renowned style accent that gives that rich personality to any ensemble.
