Antonio Blanco, a famous Spanish descent painter, was one of foreign artists who fell in love deeply to Ubud. Married to a humble Balinese dancer, Ni Ronji, Blanco spent the rest of his life in Bali wonderland. Together they lived in a big house once functioned as Blanco’s studio in a top of a mountain overlooking the Campuhan River in Ubud. Nowadays, to feel the sense and natural view of what might had been experienced by Blanco, many Ubud villas are built to take you and family travel back the past.

Born in Philippines, the young Blanco studied at the American Central School in Manila, in which he grew with keen interest to arts, literature, and languages. In the early stages of his painting career, he had traveled to several Pacific Islands to expand his ability, including Bali, where he finally settled and raised his family in Ubud. Blanco’s home in Campuhan, which built with the sweet yet clever blend of traditional Balinese style and Spanish architecture, today serves as the museum collecting his and his son works. Situated on the strategic location of Campuhan Main Street, this historical house of Blanco’s trail of art is easily accessed from some Bali villas for rent you can find throughout Campuhan. Have a nice and special stay in a Bali Family villa, and pay a visit to the preserving house embracing Blanco’s evidence of talent.

In his life, Blanco had dreamed to turn his studio house in Ubud into a museum to exhibit and keep his works altogether. Unfortunately he died before the opening, but then his son Mario Blanco continued his efforts to establish this dream museum named Blanco Renaissance Museum.
