FOREWORD
"When artists attempt to set up among themselves an exclusive
cul t based on a belief in some form of special dispensation, it means
that art is dead. When a r tists will forget to think of their occupation a s a thing apa rt, and of themselves as distinct from mankind,
when they di scover that they are craftsmen and belong to the great
company of masons a nd goldsmiths and carpenters, with Donatello
and Ghirlandajo and M ichela ngelo, then they will get back their
great traditions and come Lo thcir own ag1in ."

THE PENNSYL VANIA ACADEMY
OF THE FINE ARTS
T~e Pennsylvania Academy conducts the oldest school in
Amenca devoted exclusively to the cultivation of the fine arts.
It. also conducts
at Chester Springs , Chester Co ,' Pe nnsyI vama,
.
,
what IS beheved to be the best equipped Open-air and Summer
School in this country.
D.uring t~e hu~dred and fo urteen yea rs of th~ Academy's existence It has aided 111 the training of ma ny men and women whose
names are illustrious on the pages of Ameri can Art, Among its
former studen ts a re eminent pa in ters-figure, landscape, and marine
- mu ra l d ecora tors, illustrators, and sculptors of national repu tation, Its history is in no small measure the history of American
Art itself.
Its schools a re under the immediate care of a Curator and
Committee on In stru ction a ppoin ted by t he President and Board
of Directors , together wi t h a F aculty composed of representat ive
a rtists of the day, men of wide experience as teachers, and eminently qua lified to discover a nd develop every talent which students
may possess. It does not wa nt students unless they in tend to be
serious workers and willing to make some sacrifice fo r t he cause of
a rt, nor does it wa nt students who expect it to teach them and
support them a t the same time.
It wastes no time in prepa ring its students for admission to its
courses of study, but engages them at once and exclusively in
the study of the Fine Arts a nd bends all it~ energies in this di rection a lone.
It especially aims to instruct its students in correct Drawing,
a nd some of its largest prizes are based upon this fund amental
requisite to gra phic a r t. It aims, furthermore, to instruct it s pupils
in the ha rmony a nd contrast of Color, a nd to create and develop in
t hem a correct color sense; also in Composition; in perspective, and
in every other essen tial to a comprehensive study of the fine ar ts,
[II]
Lectures of general and special interest are given during the
year, and students may attend them without extra charge.
. T~e Academy's ~ermanent Collection of paintings and sculpture
IS an Important adjunct to the students' regular work.
The Permanent Collection includes the Gallery of National Portraiture; t1~e Temple C?llection of Modern American Paintings;
and the GIbson CollectIOn, largely composed of works of the
Con tinen tal schools.
Copying in the galleries is permitted to stuuents under reasonable regulations.
The Academy is equipped in every way to teach the technique
of Painting and Sculpture.
Tbc in struction it affords is fully equal frum a technical standpoint to that obtainablc in Europe. Its Faculty, collections, gallcries, class-rooms, and equipment of models and casts arc admirably
fitted for their purpose_ It can teach art to Americans bettcr than
they can be taught abroad, and it is an exploded idea that it is
necessary to go to Europe in order to study in some particular
art istic "atmosphere."
The Annual Exhibitions hcld by the Academy, bring together
the best examples of current American painting and sculpture, and
enable students 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 Exhiuition of Water Colors composed of 634 examples, representing 135 differcnt artists;
An Exhibition of Mii1iatures composed of 100 examples, representing 47 difTercnt artists;
The Academy's I14th Annual Exhibition of Oil Paintings and
Sculpture, composed of 32+ paintings and 81 sculptures, and
reprcsenting a total of 265 artists. This Exhibition was opened to
public view for seven weeks and visited by -1-8,078 people.
Special exhibitions held cluring the year inclucle:
The British 'V al' Photographs in Color.
The Norman H. Brock Collection of War Posters.
The Official Briti sh War Paintings and Drawings.

established.
Scholarships will be awarded by the Board of Directors upon
the recommendation of the Committee on Instruction and the
Faculty of the Schools.
A pplicants must submi t original drawings or pain tings before September IS and show that they are otherwise worthy of the award.
TRAVELLING SCHOLARSHIPS
So 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
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, awardcd to
the students impartially upon the merits of their work.
During the last year seventeen students were awarded Cresson
Scholarships, the enjoyment of which was deferred until travel and
study in Europe a re considered advisable by the Board of Directors.

SOME ADVANTAGES OF LOCATION
. ~he Academy bui1~ing is located in the heart of Philadelphia,
wlthll1 one square of City Uall and within two or three blocks of th
central city railroad depots. The new Parkway brings it withi:
e~s~ r~ac~1 of Fain.llount Park and 3000 acres of beautiful scenery.
,,\. 11Ile It IS conVeme{lt to the UUSI11CSS pUrLiun of the city , it is also
readily accessible to the residential dist ricts, and st udents can obtain
good board at reasonaLle rates. Philadelphia is often call ed" The
City of H omes," 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 reasonaLle rates. The cost
of living is low.
The city contains, in addition to the Academy's own gallery, a
number of notable collections of paint ings which are accessible to
students. Among the more important may be mentioned: The
Wilstach Collection in Fairmount Park; Th e Lankenau Collection
at the Drexel Institute; the important paintings at the Historical
Society of Pennsylvania, and at Independence Hall; the private •
cullect ion s of t he bte John G. J ohnson, of J oseph E. Widener, and
of the late William L. Elkins. Admission to Pri vate Collections
by appointment only.
To students attending the Academy, the Reference Library and
the Galleries are free during the time of their attendance.

the early part of ~he 19th century. It possesses a famous iron spring,
the waters o~ wh.lch gave the place its old name of" Yellow Springs,"
a second spnn? Impregnated with sulphur and a third sp ring, which
on account of Its exceedingly pure water is known as the" Diamond
Spring." The school is not far from Valley F orge, and the surroundmg country is rich in historical association. During the
Summer of 1917 the Historical Society of Chester County, Pa.,
unveiled a bronze tablet to mark the location of the H ospital
which stood on the site of the present studio building and which
Washington erected for the sick and wounded soldiers of the
Revolution.

The chief object of the Academy in establishing a summer school
in the country is to supplement the work done during the Winter
at its schools in Philadelphia, by in struction in painting in the open
air, and to afford an opportunity for the study of art, to school
teachers and to others who cannot spare time [or study except
during the vacation months.
p::
u
0
The methods of instruction adopted are substantially the same
as those ·used at the Academy in Philadelphia during its regular
Winter courses, special attention, however, being paid to landscape
drawing and painting, to figure painting in the open air, and to the
study of sunlight and shade. While the range of the fine-art instruction is as broad as possible, all fashions and mannerisms are avoided.
Students are taught to make "studies·' of nature rather than
"sketches," and are also taught to carryon their work as far as
their abilities p ermit.

students for the purpose of directing them in selection and mterpretation.

CRITICISMS
Criticisms will be given from time to time by difTerent members
of the Faculty: by Fred Wagner in April, May, June, July, August,
September and October; by H.enry McCarter in June and September,
by Daniel Garber in July and August, by Hugh H. Breckenridge in
Augu st and September, and others as may be arranged .
The Academy accepts serious students only and not those who
simply desire an advantageous place to board in the country.
The place is a school, not a boarding house. The board is as
low as possible in view of present conditions; the rate includes
all charges for instru ction (but not materials for drawing or
painting). The rates for board and lodging vary from $10 per
week for students living in the dormitories, to $12.50, $15 and
$17.50 per week where private rooms are requ ired. On account of
the high cost of supplies, the minimum rates of board (which
includes tuition) cannot be reduced. The table is simple and
wholesome.
The buildings are supplied with hot and cold running water and
with electric light.
There are Reading Room s supplied with current magazin es; a
library of several hundred volumes; and a theatre with stage,
footlights, and dressing rooms. Thcre is also a convenient quarry
hole of pure spri ng water, in which students who know how to
swim may do so.
Satisfactory references are required from all applicants, and
as the students live in the buildings, conformity with reasonable
regulations is necessary to secure proper chaperonage.
~tu.dcnt
will be expected to know how to conduct themselves from pnnclples
of honor without specific rules.
Students are not allowed to smoke in the Studios nor
Dormitories.
No student will be accepted for a shorter stay than t.w~ weeks.
No student under 16 years of age is eligible for ac1nllsslOn.

SCULPTURE STUDENTS' EXHIBITION
The work of the Classes in Sculpture consists of modelling fwm
the living model, generally in the round, but occasionally in relief.
and 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 the 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.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZES
T ravelling
Scholarships
By the wills of Emlen Cresson and Priscilla p, Cresson, a Fund
has been created as a Memorial to their deceased son, William
Em~~n Cresson, Aca,demician, the income of which is to be applied
by 1 he PennsylvanIa Academy of the Pine Arts in sending pupils
of merit to Europe,
During the past year the Academy awarded seventeen Cresson
Scholarships to pupils. Included in the number were twelve
painters, two sculptors, and three illustrators. These awards were
made by the Board of Directors upon the recommendation of the
Faculty, but with the distinct understanding that the students were
not to go abroad at the present time, but that the date of their trip
will depend upon the future determination of the Board of Directors,
The awards are divided among the various branches of instruction taught in the Schools, based upon the number 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 the 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. 'Unless some satisfactory excuse be accepted by the
Committee on Instruction, such second competition and award
must be during the next year succeeding the first awar?, but all
students who have heretofore received one Cresson Travel111lg Scholarship and who, by reason of the war, have been unable to enjoy the
same, arc given Scholarships to The Pennsylvania Academy ,of the
Fine Arts, carrying free tuition for the season of 19I9- 1920 WIth the
privilege of competing again in May, 1920, for a second Cresson
Travelling Scholarship.
