oil on canvas
23 1/2” x 31” (60 cm x 79 cm)
Literature:

Exhibited:
Cultural Center of the Philippines, Macario Vitalis: A Retrospective Exhibition, August 1 - 27, 1986
A Filipino expatriate in France was Macario Vitalis, whose early work showed the cubist influence of the school of Paris, but tended more naturally towards an impressionist-pointilliststyle.
Macario Vitalis’ work since 1980 bears an effervescent mood. This celebratory élan spills over into many of his works of the period, even in landscaped views such as this one. What is unique in this work is the setting being a reminiscence of Vigan, a city close to Lapog, the town of his birth. This may well indicate his longing for home at the twilight of his life.
