FOREWORD
"When artists attempt to set up among themselves an exclusive
cult based on a belief in some form of special dispensation, it means
that art is dead. When artists will forget to think of their occupation as a thing apart, and of themselves as distinct from mankind,
when they discover that they are craftsmen and belong to the great
company of masons and goldsmiths and carpenters, with Donatello
and Ghirlandajo and Michelangelo, then they will get back their
great traditions and come to their own again."

THE PENNSYLVANIA ACADEMY
OF THE FINE ARTS

. Duri~g the .one ~undred and fifteen years of the Academy's
eXIstence It ~as aIded III the training of many men and women whose
names are Illustrious on the pages of American Art. Among its
former students are eminent painters-figure, landscape, and marine
~m ural decorators, illustrators, and sculptors of national reputatIon. Its history is in no small measure the history of American
Ar t itself.
The schools are under the immediate care of a Curator and
Committee on Instruction appointed by the President and Board
of D irectors, together with a Faculty composed of representative
artists of the day, who are experi enced teachers and eminently qualified to discover and develop every talent which students may
possess.
The Academy engages its students at once and exclusively in the
study of the Fine Arts, and aims to equip them with a thorough
knowledge of Correct Drawing, Color Value, Composition, Modelling,
Constructive Anatomy, and Perspective.
Lectures of general and special interest are given during the
year, and students may attend t hem without extra charge.
The Academy's Permanent Collection of paintings and sculpture
is an important adjunct to the students' regular work.
The P ermanent Collection includes the Gallery of National Port ra iture; t he Temple Collection of Modern American Paintings;
and the Gibson Collection, largely composed of works of the
Continental schools.
Copying in the galleries is permitted to students under reasonable regulations.
.
The Academy is equipped in every way to teach t~e technique
of Painting and Sculpture, and the instruction it affords ISfully eq ual
from a technical standpoint to that obtainable in Europe.
[u j
The Annual Exhibitions held by the Academy bring together
the best examples of current American painting and sculpture, and
enable student s to follow intelligently the various movements of
modern art, and to study the technical methods by which th

t~ d ay IS ac levmg ItS resul~s. These exhibitions have been rccog111zed for rrany years as bemg the foremost in America. During the
past year they ineluded:
~n Exhibi.lion of Water Colors composed of 622 examples, representmg 215 different artists;
An Exhibiti on of Miniatures composed of 112 examples, repre'
senting 58 different a rtists;
The Academy's 1T5th Annual Exhibition of Oil Paintings and
Sculpture, composed of 360 paintings and 158 sculptures, representing a total of 333 artists. This Exhibition was opened to
public view for seven weeks and visited by 45,505 people.
A Special Loan Exhibition of Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture
by Representative Modern Masters was held from April 17 to r-.lay 9.
The Exhibition consisted of 256 examples of Paintings, Drawings
and Sculpture by ar tists whose influence has directed the development of art during the past seventy-five years. An unusual opportunity was offered by the assembling of these masterpieces for studying the modern movement in art beginning with the work of Courbet.

SOME ADVANTAGES OF LOCATION
o
()
The Academy building is located in the heart of Philadelphia,
within one square of City Hall and within two or· three blocks of the
central city railroad depots. The new Parkway brings it within
easy reach of Fairmount Park and 3000 acres of beautiful scenery.
While it is convenient to the business portion of the city, it is also
readily accessible to the residential districts. Philadelphia is often
called" The City of Homes," and of all the greater American cities
it is probably the most worthy of the name. Apartments and studios
can be obtained by the year or by the month for reasonable rates.
The cost of living is low.
The city contains, in addition to the Academy's own gallery, a
number of notaLle 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 Independence Hall; the collectIOns
of the late John G. Johnson, of Joseph E. Widener! and.of the.iate
William L. Elkins. Admission to Private CollectIOns IS obtamed
by appointment only.
.
To students attending the Academy, the Reference LIbrary and
the Galleries are free during the time of their attendance.

"
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 The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in sending pupils
of merit to Europe.
During the past year the Academy awarded ten Cresson
Scholarships. Included in this number were six painters, two
sculptors, and two illustrators. These awards were made by the
Board of Directors upon the recommendat ion of the F aculty.
The awards are divided among the Painting, Illustration and
Sculpt ure Classes, and are based upon the number of pupils in each
Cla ss as one factor, and the standard of the work as another factor.
The award heretofore has consisted of Five Hundred Dollars to each
student· to be expend ed in foreign travel and study, bu t, on account
of th e increase in travelling expenses the board of Directors made the
follow ing announcem ent at the close of the school year, I920: "The
awards have been proportioned in the past so as to provide each
student with Five Hundred Dollars t o expend in actual t ravel and
travelling expenses, bu t on account of the increase in such expenses
the Academy announces that aU students going abroad this year
will be given Two Hundred Dollars additional for each scholarship."
It is the intention of t he Cresson Scholarships to give to the
students of the Academy the advantage of seeing some of the import ant Galleries and Art Schools abroad, and the Academy desires to
extend the benefit of the Scholarships to as many students as possible, p rovided t hey 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 t he ensuing school year. The Board of
Directors, upon the recommendation of the Committee on Instr uct ion , may, in case of exce ptional meri t , permit a student to compete
a second time fo r a Cresson Scholarship, a nd to receive a second
award of $5 00 . Unless some satisfactory excuse be accepted by the
Committee on Inst ruction, such second co mpetition and award
must be during t he year succeeding the first award, but all students
who have heretofore received one Cresson Travelling Scholarshlp
and who, by reason of the war, have been unable to enj oy the same,
are given Scholarships to The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fme
[4 I 1
A~ts'l carryfin g free tuition for the season of 1920- 1921 with the
?nvI ege 0 competing again in May, 1921, for a second Cresson
fravelllng Scholarship .
. The award of ~ Travelling Scholarship is not to be regarded as a
certIficate of proficIency. Students receiving an award fo r the first
time a re required to return to the Academy for further study and
to inspire and encourage their fellow -students.
No student will be awarded a Cresson Scholarship who has not
s tudied at least 16 months in the Academy and been registered for
both terms during t h e year of competition.
In estimating the total sixteen months of study necessary to
qualify competitors, time spen t at work at the Chester Springs
Summ er School will be counted, but no student will be eligible to
compete who is not registered in the Philadelphia schools [or both
terms of his competition year.

t he Academy,
A first prize of $10 and a second prize of $5 will be awarded by
the Academy upon 'the recommendation of the instructor of the school
where made, for the best and second bcst drawings made by regularly enrolled students of each schooL

assigned by the instructor, and must be the unaided work of the
student, wi thout crit icism,
The dra wings must be made with lead pencil, charcoal or crayon

THE ACADEMY'S SUMMER
SCHOOL AT CHESTER SPRINGS
The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts owns a tract of
40 acres at Chestcr Springs, Chester County, Pennsylvania, where
it conducts an open air school for fine art instruction.
Chester Springs is seven and one-half miles northwest of Phcenixville on the Pickering VaUey Railroad. It is a beautiful little village,
wlth postoffice, schools, stores and churches. The population is
purely native American.
The Academy's property is one-quarter of a mile from the station. It is about 300 feet above mean ocean tide level, supplied with
electnc light from Phcenixville and reached in about one hour and
thirty minutes by train service from the Rea:iing Terminal at
Philadelphia. It is north of the village, surrounded by typical
Pennsylvania farm land, the scenery of which is enriched by gently
rolling hills and by Pickering Creek with its mea:iows and valleys.
It is at the foot of a hill rising to the north over 500 feet, and includes
a number of buildings upon the hillside, affording ample studio
room, and separate dormitories for men and wom en .

THE BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS
The men's building, known as the Washington Building, is a large
three-story stone structure, 146 feet long, with airy dormitories on the
second and third floors, private rooms for those who want them, and
contains on the first floor the main kitchen and general dining room.
The women's building, known as the Lincoln Building, is also
three stories in height, is 88 feet long, with similar airy dormitories
on the second and third floors, and with private rooms, and contains on the first floor a library and reading room used by all of the
students. It is about 60 feet to the eastward of the Washington
Building. Both are near the public road.
About 130 feet back of these two dormitory buildings, and .up
the side of the hill, is the main Studio Building, 78 by 49 feet, whlch
has upon the first fl oor a theatre or lecture room with dressing rooms
for men and women, and upon the second floor one large studio used
by the'·students in common, and several smaller ones, affordmg together ~ple space for all the students to work indoors in wet weather.

The
· face,
. old Kimberton Road ' upon which the dorml·tones
Joms m front ~f the property, with t~e White Horse Road leading
down to the village. Fr.om the dormitory buildings there is a long
covered walk up the hillSide to the Studio, so that students are protected dunng wet. weather. Further west on the Kimberton R oa d .
a b out I 60 f ~et, IS the ~un~alow, affording additional dormitory
accommodatlOns, and wh1ch IS reserved for men who desire to live
together with greater freedom than they can in the Washington
Building.
On the opposite side of the Kimberton Road, at its junction with
the White Horse Road, is the Faculty Building, a double stone resi dence, used to accommodate resident teachers, and conveniently
near the main dormitories. Directly across the Kimberton Road ,
is a large and quaint one-story frame building called the Art Gallery,
used by the students to exhibit their work and in which are
accommodations for washing palettes and brushes and for making
frames.
Across the road from the dormitory buildings, in the large
meadow, are tennis courts and croquet grounds. In the centre of
the meadow, below the Washington Building, is the famous Yellow
Spring. Its waters are so heavily charged with iron that they color
the stones of the run leading from the spring. It gave the locality
the ancient name of the "Yellow Springs." Over the hill beyond
the meadow is a convenient quarry hole, with clear blue water,
where a bathhouse has been erected, so that students who know how
to swim may do so.
The drinking water for all of the buildings descends by gravity
from a spring rising near the top of the hill, the water being conducted by a piping system into concrete reservoirs, which can be
augmented by an auxiliary system, permitting water to be pumped
to the reservoirs from another spring, known as the Diamond Spring,
situated in the meadow far from the buildings, and the water of
which is of singular clearness and purity.
The countryside is remarkably paint able, wi th many attractive
old dwellings, quaint barns and spnng houses, with old trees, abundant woodland, creeks and ponds, and with beautiful views near at
hand. Directly in front of the Washington Building is a grove of
sycamores of great age, and back of it is one of the largest sycarr:ores
in Pennsylvania, possessing a mighty spread of limb and contall1l11g
in one of its large arms the iron prongs, now almost covered with
bark, which were used in the olden days for the bell to call t~e guests
to dinner, when the vVashington Building was used as an mn.
[63J
The chief object of the Academy in establishing a summer school
in the country is to supplement the work done during the Winter
in its Philadelphia schools by instruction 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 for study except
during the vacation months.
(
\
The methods of instruction are substantially the same as
those used at the Academy in Philadelphia, 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.
Students are taught to make .. studies" of nature rather than
.. sketches," and are also taught to carry on their work as far as
their abilities permit.
The general method of instruction is by individual criticism of
work submitted. The instructors will, from time to time, work with
the students for the purpose of assisting them in the selection and
interpretation of their subjects.
