of fhe Pennsy lvania Academy of th e Fine Arts
held Monday, May 6, 1912,-the President in th e
Chair, - the d eat h was announced of Georg-e D. \ Videner,
a member of th e Board , who was lost on th e Steamship
" Titanic, " Monday morning, April the 15th, 1912, <:lnc\
it was th ereupon unanimo usly
Resolved, That in th e death of Geo r!{e n. Wi dener
the Board has lost a faithful and enicient member and the
Directors a tru e and loyal friend. Ever si nce his election
to members hip in th e Board he was deeply interested in
th e work of th e A cademy and ambi ti ous that its growth
and devel opment should be worthy of its place as the
oldest Art Institution in Ameri ca. H e was interested
not only in th e Schools, which his serv ice upon the
COlllmittee upo n In struction brought particularly under
his ca re, but a lso in Galleries a nd Public Exhibitions,
and even in th e way th e pictures were hung and arranged.
His jud gment was sound and conservative and though
ready at call to support his o wn opinions, he was alll'ays
singularly considerate of th e views of others.
Ever frank, straightfo rward and manly in all th at he
said and thongh t, faithful in the performance of every
duty he assumed, gene rous without stint but so quiet ly
withal that none will ever know the rea l measure of his
worth, his death whil e tragic, was litting, self-sacrifi cing
and heroic.
R esolved, That we deem it our duty to make this
minute of th e g reat loss the Academy has s ustained, and
we direct th e Secretary to publish our action and notify
1\1r. Widener's family.
"
Ever frank. straightforward and m anly in all that be said and
thought, faithful in the p e rform a nce o f every duty he assumed
generous witho ut stint but 8 0 quie tly w ithal that none will eve;
know
of his worth his death while tra g Ie,
' was
' . the real m. easure
. .
f Ittm g, self-sacrifi c In g and h e roic."

(
The . Penns~lvania Academy is the oldest school in America
devote~ exclusIVely to the cultivation of the fine arts.
. DU:Ing the hund red and more years of its existence, it has
aided 111 the training of many of the men and women whose names
are the most illustrious on the pages of American Art. Among its
f~rmer students are eminent painters-figure, landscape, and mann:-mural dec~rato~s, illu s.tr~tors, and sculptors of national reputation. In fact, Its history IS In no small measure the history of
American Art itself.
The School is under the immediate care of a Curator and
Committee on Instruction appointed by the President and Board
of Directors, together with a Faculty composed of representative
artists of the day, men of wide experience as teachers and eminently
qualified to discover and develop every latent talent which students
may 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 wastes no time in preparing its students for admission to its
co urses of study, but engages them at once and exclusively in
the study of the Fine Arts and bends all its energies in this direction alone.
It especially aims to instruct its students in correct Drawing,
and some of its largest prizes are based upon this fundamental
requisite to graphic art. It aims, furthermore, to instruct its pupils
in Color, its harmony and contrast, and to create and develop in
them a correct color sense, also in composition, in perspective, and
in every other essential to a comprehensive study of the fine arts.
Lectures of general and special interest are given during the
yea r, and the students may attend them without 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
[II]
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 regu lations.

The Annual Exhibitions held by the Academy bring together
the best examples of American painting and sculpture, and enable
the student to follow intelligently th e 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 Water Colors composed of 636 examples,
representing 160 different artists;
An Exhibition of Miniatures composed of two collections: The
Annual Exhibition of the Pennsylvania Society of Miniature
Painters of I II examples, representing 60 different artists, and a
Loan Collection of cuttings from illuminated manuscripts of the
Middle Ages, selected to show the origin and development of
miniature painting composed of 108 items;
An Exhibition of Architecture by the T-Square Club of Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Institute of
Architects, composed of 388 items, and representing 103 architects ; and finally,
The Academy's 108th Annual Exhibition of Oil Paintings and
Sculpture, composed of 480 paintings and 193 sculptures, and
representing a total of 410 artists. This Exhibition was opened to
public view for seven weeks and visited by 57,027 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 techmcal standpoint to that obtainable in Europe. Its Faculty, collections, ~aller
ies, class-rooms, and equipment of models and casts are admirably
fitted for their purpose.

As far as instruction is concerned there is no necessity whatever for .the stndent to leave America, but, by the liberal provision
of the wills of Emlen Cresson and Priscilla P., his wife, a fund has
been created, as a memorial to their deceased son, William Emlen
Cresson, Aca~emicia~, t~e income of which is to be applied by
the Academy m sendmg 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-four students were awarded 5500
each and sent abroad for a period of four months, from June to
September inclusive, and enabled to return to the Academy during
the fall and continue their studies without the payment of any
tuition fees.

Besides the Cresson scholarships, other substantial prizes are
offered to students as hereafter stated, and every incentive held out
to them to develop their talents to the uttermost.
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 often 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 ye~r . or
by the month upon fair and reasonable rates. The cost of hvmg
is low.
The city contains, in addition to the Academy's gall.ery, 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 important paintings at the
Historical Society of Pennsylvania, and at Independ~nce Hall;
the collections of John G. Johnson, of Peter A. B. Widener, and
of the late William L. Elkins.

Mr. Day's Lectures on Perspective
The Lectures on Perspective begin about the first week in
November. They are open to students of any course without
extra charge.
The Course consists in lectures upon the elements of linear perspective illustrated by drawings made before the class; in exercises
upon the same subject and in sketching from the solid object and
from nature ' and in the application of the knowledge thus gamed
to illustratio~ and painting. The way in which artists of various
schools have used the principl es of perspective is demonstrated by
lantern projections of their works.

SCULPTURE, STUDE:\TS' EXHIBITI01\
The work of the Classes in Sculpture consists of modelling from
the living model, generally in the round, but occasionally in relief,
a nd from both the full-length figure and the head only.
In addition to the work from life, each student is required to
present two sketch-models of sculptural themes, when directed by
the Instructor. On these the student will receive individual monthly
criticism throughout th e balance of the school-year, in order to
develop the original themes to their fullest extent, as if the subjects
were to be finally executed in full size.

life classes, they are immediately promoted without the payment
of any further fee.
Some practical knowledge of the use of clay and a true conception of form in the round are of manifest advantage to both painter
and illustrator.
Students in sculpture are permitted to work in the drawing and
painting classes and recommended to work therein, but admission
to the life drawing classes is, for sculptors, subject to the same
req uirements as for painters.
The Night Class meets from 7 to 10 p.m. The work in this
class is identical with that done in the Day Classes except that the
working hours are less.
The
Fees for Sculpture Classes
The fee for the Classes in Sculpture is $50 per term. Students
are allowed to work in the Day Classes or Night Classes or in both,
and students in Modelling are permitted to work in the Drawing

SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZES
Travelling Scholarships
By the wills of Emlen Cresson and Priscilla P. Cresson, a Fund
has been created as a Memorial to their deceased son, William
Emlen Cresson, Academician, the income of which is to be applied
by Th~ Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in sending pupils
of ment to Europe.
D uring th e past year the Academy sent abroad twenty-four
pupils. There were 16 pain ters, 3 sculptors and 5 illustrators.
The awards are divided among the various branches of instruction taught in the Schools, based upon the ?lumber of pupils
in each Course as one factor, and the standard of the work as
another factor. The award consists of $500 to each student, to be
expended in foreign travel and work, within the limits of the
Scholarship.
It is the intention of the Cresson Scholarships to give to the
students of the Academy the advantage of seeing some of the
important Galleries and Art Schools abroad, and the Academy
desires to extend the benefit of the Scholarships to as many
students as possible, provided they possess th e necessary merit.
The trip abroad is limited to the summer vacation, a period of four
months, from June to September inclusive, so that students can
return to the Academy for study during the ensuing school year.
The Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Committee on Instruction, may, in case of exceptional merit, permit
a student to compete for the Cresson Scholarships again, and
receive a second award of $500, but unless some satisfactory excuse
be accepted by the Committee on Instruction, such second competition .and award must be during th e next year succeeding the
first award.
The award of a Travelling Scholarship is not to be regarded as a
certificate of proficiency, and students receiving such award,
whether for the first or second time, are req uired to return to the
Academy for further study and to inspire and encourage their fellows.
During the past year six students were sent abroad for the
?\ 1;tr y H. Thomas

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 home for the Art Student
Philadelphia has un i que advantages .
Known as the" City of Homes," it affords
good living at a lower cost than is possible
in any other large city in the East.
In historical interest it is rich, and its
suburbs, 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 distance 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.
