Spoliarium by Juan Luna Y Novicio. Exhibit in Old Senate Hall
This Hall was originally designed to be a library in
the early 1920s during the American colonial period, when the architect
Juan Arellano revised the plans of Ralph Harrington Doane in order to
convert the building to the seat of the legislature. The Senate was then
led by Manuel L. Quezon, the leader of the movement for Philippine
independence from the United States. Information from the website of the National Museum of the Philippines
