Félix Resurrección Hidalgo (Binondo, Manila 1855 - Barcelona 1913) - Félix Resurrección Hidalgo (Binondo, Manila 1855 - Barcelona 1913) View of the coast of Jolo. Pencil on paper. Signed and titled in the lower right-hand corner: ‘F. R. Hidalgo / Joló’. Measurements: 13.3 x 20.5 cm. The drawing we are dealing with here must be a work from his youth, both for the subject represented, a view of the bay of Jolo in his native Philippines, and for the proposed chronology itself, 1870-1880, as the artist in the latter year obtained a pension which would take him to Madrid in order to study drawing and painting. Provenance: Private collection.
