A project of O.B. Montessori Center, Inc., & Peso Book Foundation.

This three-year project reveals for the first time to today's collectors the astonishing grandeur of the brush of a popular darling of a past era - Cesar Buenaventura. No one knows the exact scope or magnificence of the large body of work left behind by Cesar, perhaps not even himself if he were still alive. Works were bought wet from the easel or whisked overseas. There never has been a retrospective. This is the first time that Cesar Buenaventura's works are brought to public eye after his demise. It is also the first attempt ever to assemble together into a single portfolio his diverse, extensive, and masterful collection of works. This book gives you a peek into many private collections of old families that you will never had a privilege of seeing, except in the pages of this tome.
