DO N01 REPROpUCE WITH
THE PENNSYLVANIA ACADEMY

OF THE FINE ARTS 1910-1911
The Pennsylvania Academy is the oldest school in America devoted exclusively to the cultivation of the fine arts.
Dll rin g- th e hundred a nd m o re yea rs of its existence, it has

a ided in th e trainin g of m any o f the men and wom en whose nam es
are th e mos t illustri o us o n th e pages of Ameri can Art. Am o ng its
fo rm er stud ents a re e min ent painte rs- fi g ure , landsca pe , a nd marine-mu r<l l decora to rs, illustrators, and sc ulptors of nati o n<l l re puta ti o n. In fact, its hi sto ry is in no sm all measure th e hi story o f
Am e ri ca n A rt itse lf.
The Sc hool is und er th e immediate care of a C ura to r and
Co mmittee o n Instru ctio n a ppo inted by th e President and Board
of D irec tors, tog-eth er with a F ac ulty co mposed of re presentative
arti sts o f th e da y, me n o f wid e e xperi ence as teache rs and eminently
qu alifi ed to di scover and develop eve ry late nt ta lent which stu dents
ma y possess.
The aim of the Academy is not only to supply the best facilities
for the study of the Fine Arts in general, but also by means of regular courses of study to equip its students for any special line of
artistic work which they may desire to follow.
It \\'as tes no time in pre paring its stu elents fo r adm issio n to its

co urses of stu dy , but, presupposing th at th ey have received pr ima ry instrtl cti o n a lread y, engages them at o nce and ex clus ive ly in
th e stud y of th e Fine Arts anel bends a ll its energies in thi s directio n alo ne .
It especiall y a ims to instru ct its stude nts in co rrec t Drawing,
and some of its larges t prizes are based upon thi s fun da menta l '
requi si te to g rap hi c a rt. It a ims, furth ermore, to instru ct its pu p il s
in Colo r, its harmo ny a nd co ntrast, and to create an d d evelop in
th em a co rrect colo r sense, a lso in compositio n, in perspecti ve, a nd
in every other essenti a l to a comprehensive study of t he fine a rts.
Lectures of genera l a nd special interest are given during the
year, and the students may attend them witho ut extra charge.

The Academy's Permanent Collection of paintings and sculpture
is an important adjunct to the students' regular work.
The Permanent Collection of paintings and sculpture includes
the Gallery of National Portraiture, the Temple Collection of
Modern American Paintings, and the Gibson Collection, which is
largely composed of works of the Continental schools.
Copying in the galleries is permitted to students under reasonable regulations.
The Annual Exhibitions held by the Academy bring together
the best examples of American painting and sculpture, and enable
the student to follow intelligently the various movements of
modern art, and study the technical methods by which the art of
the day is achieving its results. These exhibitions have been
recognized for many years as being the foremost in America.
During the past year they included:
An Exhibition of "Vater Colors composed of 362 examples
representing 121 different artists;
An Exhibition of Miniatures composed of I45 examples representing 78 different artists, and including also examples of foreign
miniaturists;
An Exhibition of Architecture by the T-Square Club of Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Institute of
Architects, composed of 293 items, and representing 88architects ; and finally,
The Academy's 105th Annual Exhibition of Oil Paintings and
Sculpture, composed of 495 paintings and II2 sculptures, and
representing a total of 370 artists. This Exhibition was opened to
public view for six weeks and \ isited by 6 r ,420 people.
The Academy is equipped in every way to teach the technique of Painting and Sculpture.
The instruction it affords is fully equal from a technical standpoint to that obtainable in Europe. Its Faculty, collections, galleries, class-rooms, and equipment of models and casts are admirably
fitted for their purpose.
TRAVELLING SCHOLARSHIPS
As far as instruction is concerned there is no necessity whatever for the student to leave America, but, by the liberal provision
of the wills of Emlen Cresson and Priscilla P., his wife, a fund has
[II]

been created, as a memorial to their deceased son, William Emlen
Cresson, Academician, the income of which is to be applied by
the Academy in sending its most meritorious students to Europe.
The income is divided into scholarships of $500 each, awarded to
the students impartially upon the merits of their work.
During the last year twenty-three students were awarded $500
each and sent abroad for a period of four months, from June to
September inclusive, thereby enabling them to return to the
Academy during the fall and continue their studies .

The Academy building is located in the heart of Philadelphia
within one square of the City Hall and within two or three blocks
of the central city railroad depots. While it is convenient to the
business portion of the city, it is also readily accessible to the
residential districts, and students can obtain good board at reasonable rates. Philadelphia is oiten called "The City of Homes,"
and of all the greater American cities it is probably the most
worthy of· the name. Houses can be purchased or rented upon
easy terms, and apartments and studios obtained by the year or by
the month upon fair and reasonable rales.
The cost of living
is low.
The city contains, in addition to the Academy's gallery, a
number of notable collections of paintings which are accessible to
students. Among the more important may be mentioned: The
Wilstach Collection in Fairmount Park; The Lankenau Collection at the Drexel Institute; the historical paintings of the
Historical Society of Pennsylvania, and of Independence Hall;
the collections of John G. Johnson, of Peter A. B. vVidener, and
of the late William L. Elkins.

Assistance in securing board or rooms will be given upon
request. The cost of living in Philadelphia is not high, and suitable
accommodations within reasonable distance of the Academy are
readily obtainable, for both men and women.
Blank forms of application and any further information regarding the Schools may be obtained by addressing
CHARLES F. RAMSEY,
Curator of the Schools.
BROAD STREET,ABOVE ARCH,
PHILADELPHIA.

To the students in the Schools the Academy's Reference Library
and Galleries are free.
The permanent collection of paintings and sculpture, including
the Gallery of National Portraiture, the Temple Collection of
Modern American Paintings, and the Gibson Collection, largely
made up of works of the Continental Schools, is of great value
as an assistance to study.
Copying in the Galleries is permitted under reasonable regulations.
Students are also given free access to the many current exhibitions which the Academy holds each year. These, and especially
the Annual Exhibition of Oil Paintings and Sculpture, are a source
of inspiration and a valuable index to the trend of artistic thought.

As a temporary horne for the Art Student
Philadelphia has un i que advantages.
Known as the. " City of Homes," it affords
good livlng at a lower cost than is possible
in any other large city in the East.
In historical interest it is rich, and its
suburb", easy of access, offer unusual
chance for out-of-door. work. Opportunities
for general culture are varied and the
Academy is fortunately able to secure
special rates for its students to many of the
lectures and concerts given each season.

'"'"

The Academy itself is centrally located
and within short walking di~ tance from it
are good boarding-places. The two principal railroad stations are each within five
minutes' walk.
Recognizing that a comfortable living
place is an aid to serious study the management invites correspondence with students
from a distance and offers freely its information and aid.
