Tagalog Girl, pastel, by Pablo Amorsolo. The Tagalogs occupy the provinces of Tayabas, Batangas, Cavite, Laguna, Rizal, Bataan, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, and Manila. Considerable numbers are also found in Camarines Norte, Tarlac, and southern Zambales. Outside Luzon, the island of Marinduque is wholly Tagalog, and Masbate partly so, as is the northern two-thirds of Mindoro.
