HISTORY
The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is the
seventy-one public spirited citizens met for formal
oldest art institution in the United States. Its origin
organization. The gathering was a distinguished one
and included the artists Charles Willson Peale, William
Rush, and Rembrandt Peale. At that meeting the
dates from 1791, when Charles Willson Peale initiated
efforts to organize a school for the fine arts in
Philadelphia. This resulted in the formation of the
Columbianum in 1794. In 1795, under the auspices of
that association, the first exhibition of painting in
Philadelphia was held in Pennsylvania's old State
House, better known today as Independence Hall.
The Columbianum was ultimately succeeded by the
present Academy. In 1805, in Independence Hall,
petition for the incorporation of The Pennsylvania
Academy of the Fine Arts was prepared. The charter
was obtained in March of 1806, creating the new
organization "To promote the cultivation of the Fine
Arts, in the United States of America (and to) enlighten
and invigorate the talents of our countrymen."

STUDY PROGRAM
PRELIMINARY DIVISION-All students with limited
experience enter the Preliminary studios. Drawing is
required, as well as the fundamentals of Painting,
Sculpture and Graphics. Still Life, Cast Drawing, Clay
Modeling, Graphics, Life Drawing and Painting, and
Experimental Drawing and Painting are subjects of
instruction. Preliminary students must register work
each month with each of their assigned instructors
as prescribed by the Administration.
Also required of each student in his first year, with
regular attendance and grades, are two of the following three special weekly courses: 1. Lecture Course in
Lettering and Perspective; 2. Lecture Course in Painting Materials and Techniques; 3. the one-semester
Course in Anatomy Drawing (either semester). The
alternative course not taken in the first year is required in the student's second year, regardless of promotion from Preliminary Division. (Note: satisfactory
completion of the three courses, on Lettering and
Perspective, on Painting Materials and Techniques
and Anatomy, is a requirement for eligibility to compete for the travel Scholarships, except that Painting
Materials and Techniques may be omitted by those
students who will have elected Sculpture as a major
course of study. These must be completed not later
than January 1st of the competition year.) Lecture
courses in Art History, and in other subjects are
optional.
The normal duration of the Preliminary Program
is two terms. Faculty action, following Administration
authorization, will determine advancement to the
Intermediate Division. (See section under "Promotions. ")
INTERMEDIATE DIVISION-Either by promotion
from the Preliminary program or by initial placement
on the basis of evident prior experience and performance, the student enters the major studio of his choice:
Painting, Graphics, or Sculpture. The Intermediate
student has the opportunity through concentrated
effort and faculty help to develop technical skills with
an individual approach" It should be noted, however,
that in order to maintain a record in good standing,
the student must meet regular monthly registrations
of w?rk as prescribed by the Administration, and must
receIve grades from his assigned instructors at the end
of each term. Also, in his second year, the third of the
three special courses described above is required.
ADVANCED DIVISION-Students in good standing
may: be promoted by the Faculty, following AdministratIon authorization, to Advanced standing when
t~~y sha~l have demonstrated a high degree of profIcIency In the prescribed categories of study under
the heading Intermediate. Winners of Cresson W

students are freed from regular registration of work
in set c~teg?ri~s .in ord.er t? pursue special projects or
emphasIze IndIVIdual InclInations in style, medium,
form or content, but will be expected to continue to
do their major work on the Academy premises. Their
work, however, intended for use in all competitions
must be approved and recorded by at least two members of the faculty. Important Note: Advanced students normally must continue to be graded according
to procedures set by the Administration, at the end
of each term.
COURSES
PAINTING-GRAPHICS-SCULPTURE
PAINTING-The emphasis in the Intermediate Painting and Drawing studios is on the study of the human
figure. There are two- and three-week Life and Portrait poses in both morning and afternoon sessions
throughout the school year. In addition, the student
obtains instruction and criticism in Still Life, Landscape, Croquis, Composition and Experimental Painting. Every student ml..1st register one example each
month of work done in each of his assigned classes,
with his respective assigned instructor. (Advanced
students are exempt from registration.)
GRAPHICS-Students may elect Graphics as a major
field of study after promotion from Preliminary. Such
students will also be assigned to a painting or sculpture group in the Intermediate Division, and will be
expected to maintain regular monthly registrations
in assigned classes. Time available after these requirements have been met may be spent in the Graphics
studios. Graphics majors must also submit work required by instructors in graphics for registration.
SCULPTURE-Sculpture students concentrate on
study from the model. Upon promotion from the Preliminary Division (see catalogue section under
"Promotions" for procedure), or by initial placement
on the basis of evident prior experience and performance, the student enters the regular sculpture class,
which is divided into Intermediate and Advanced
students. Each Intermediate student is required to
register one figure, one head, one sculpture done without a model, and five drawings each month in order
to be eligible for promotion, grades, scholarships,
19
prizes and the travel awards. Instruction in each of
these subjects is provided along with plaster and lead
casting, stone and wood carving, terra cotta, welding
and relief. In addition, each sculpture student is
required to pass the special weekly courses on Lettering and Perspective, and Anatomy Drawing before the
end of his fifth term if not done before. Note: the
special course on Painting Materials and Techniques
may be omitted by students electing sculpture as
a major.
Promotions to Advanced Division are made by the
sculpture faculty, following Administration authorization. Advanced standing carries the privilege of
working as the student chooses, free of registration
req uiremen ts.
Lead casting, kiln firing and welding can be done
only under the supervision of an instructor.
REGULATIONS-This Academy, through its long
history, has realized that maximum freedom is an
asset in the fostering of creative effort. The limited
regulations outlined in this catalogue and as posted
in the School are measures to achieve order and maintain pertinent information for record, and compliance
will constitute "Good Standing."
GOOD STANDING-In order to maintain good standing students must register work as noted above each
month with their assigned instructors, and must request grades at the end of each term from at least
four instructors including those to whom they are
assigned. All registrations and grades become a part
of the student's permanent file.
Under special conditions, certain students may request, in writing, that no detailed records of registration or grading be kept. Consent for such procedure
can only be granted by the Administration, in writing.
To be normally eligible, however, for promotions, for
the many School tuition scholarships, for prizes and
travel awards and for the Four Year Certificate granted
by the Academy, "Good Standing" IlluSt be maintained. Students not in "Good Standing" cannot secure transcripts of record in future years, nor may
draft deferment forms be granted, or the other benefits described above.
REGISTRATION OF WORK-During the normal
course of instruction members of th!3 Faculty will
criticize student work. Each month every student in
the Preliminary and Intermediate Divisions will su.bmit work to each of his assigned instructors for regIStration, as prescribed by the Administration and set
forth above under descriptions of the School courses.
Advanced Division students are freed from registration requirements.
GRADING-Grading is essential for students in the
coordinated degree programs, all holders of scholarships, and those receiving Veterans assistance. Other
students are also graded, except any special cases
approved by the Administration as noted under "Good
Standing." A minimum of four grades from instructors is required in order to determine significant
averages.
preIllises at the end of the School year. Non-coIllpliance will ~e considered as abandonIllent of such work
or POSs~sslons. There are to be no exceptions to this
regulatIon except by specific permission of the Administration. Nor will this perIllission, in the cases of
students deciding not to return, be extended beyond
the first Friday of the following Fall terIll. In any case
whatever, the AcadeIllY accepts no responsibility for
students' work or possessions at any time.
PROMOTIONS-All Preliminary students in good
standing will be eligible for promotion to their major
departments of choice when they have completed two
terms. Promotions will be made by faculty acnon
following AdIllinistration authorization, and norIllally
only those in the higher brackets of grades will be
chosen. However, faculty Illeetings are scheduled
throughout the school year, and students in the
PreliIllinary Division who have shown evidence of prior
experience and perforIllance Illay apply for proIllotion
to the InterIllediate Division at such Illeetings. Should
favorable action be taken, registration requireIllents
will have to be adjusted with the School AdIllinistration. Such proIllotion within a school season will not
cancel out the necessity for satisfactory cOIllpletion of
the courses in Lettering and Perspective; in Painting
Materials and Techniques (see note under "Sculpture"
course for exception to this req uireIllen t) ; and In
Anatomy Drawing.
InterIllediate Painting and Graphics students in
good standing Illay apply at these saIlle Illeetings, following AdIllinistration authorization, and with siIllilar
requireIllents, for proIllotion to the Advanced Division
in recognition of their achieveIllent, proficiency, and
Illaturity of purpose as deIllonstrated in the major
studios. A week prior to the Illeeting, the applicant
m,ust declare his intention to apply. One painting and
one drawing for each of the categories of Life and
Portrait IllUst be subIllitted, and also one creative
COIllposition which Illay be executed in any IllediuIll,
includtng Graphics.
Any student winning an Academy traveling scholarship will siIllultaneously achieve Advanced Standing
subject to fulfillIllent of the conditions of the
scholarship.
COUR~E CREDITS-The University of Pennsylvania
recognIzes a full term of work satisfactorily completed
at the AcadeIlly as bearing a credit rating of 12 undergraduate seIllester credits. All students enrolled in the
day school are enrolled as full tiIlle stUdents. Day
students Illay attend the evening classes at no extra
cost but receive no additional credit.
Credit is not granted for subjects taken in which the
student has not been graded.
(By special arrangeIllent beforehand with the Administration, in writing, certain evening and summer
school courses Illay be accredited.)
Studio sessions are froIll 9:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon and
1:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M. and 7:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M .

from 4:30 to 5:30 Monday through Friday. Anatomy
Drawing classes are from 4:30 to 6:00 P.M. on

Year, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is
granting to students who have satisfa.ctorily completed
four years of study in the Academy Schools, or the
equivalent according to the Academy requirements,
a Certificate giving evidence of this accomplishment.
Only students whose records show "Good Standing,"
according to the final decision of the School Administration, are eligible for these Certificates.
STUDIOS-The use of individual studios and booths,
allowed in certain cases, is a special privilege granted
by the AdIllinistration with advice of the faculty, and
can be rescinded at the discretion of the AdIllinistration when it is felt that this privilege is not being

acade:rnic courses at the Unlverslty. The prIvlleges and
facilities of both institutions are available to students
enrolled in the coordinated B.F.A. program who shall
also be subject to the regulations of both institutions.
Candidates for admission to the coordinated courses
must :rneet the requirements of each institution but
must be accepted and approved by the Academy before
they will be ad:rnitted to the University. PLEASE NOTE
that the Graduate School of Fine Arts of the University
of Pennsylvania also offers its own B.F.A. and M.F.A.
through a program distinct from the one coordinated
with the Academy.
The coordinated program leading to the degree of B.F.A.
is normally five years. To qualify for the degree a student
:rnust have co:rnpleted in good standing four years (96
s. c.) of professional study, two years of which ITlust
have been in the Academy school. Up to two years
(48 s. c.) may be accepted in transfer froITl recognized
studios or institutions at the discretion of the Academy
Administration. A further condition is election by the
Academy faculty, following Administration approval, to
Advanced Standing.
Students in this program must maintain an unbroken
record of monthly registration of work, and at the end of
each term attain a grade of B- or better.
Students with incomplete records, after promotion to
advanced studio, may request special consideration for
waivers, in writing. The Administration may grant such
waivers, on faculty recommendation, in cases of special :rnerit.
While the student is doing his professional "Work at
the Acade:rny he will also be taking courses at the University that are concentrated in the humanities, with
an emphasis on the history of art. Complete inforITlation
about this part of the program is to be found in the
Bulletin of the Graduate School of Fine Arts of the
University of Pennsylvania.
During his fifth year, the student will take related

THE WILLIAM EMLEN CRESSON MEMORIAL
TRAVELING SCHOLARSHIPS
By the lit;>eral pro~isio?s of the Wills of EIDlen Cresson
and PrisCllla P., hIS wIfe, a Fund has been created as a
memorial to their deceased son, WilliaID EIDlen Cresson,
AcadeITIician, the incolDe froID which is to be applied by
The Pennsylvania AcadeIDY of the Fine Arts in sending
pupils of IDerit to Europe. These scholarships shall be
awarded under such rules and regulations as shall be
adopted froITI tilDe to tilDe by the Board of Directors of
The Pennsylvania AcadeIDY of the Fine Arts. The award
of Cresson Scholarships has had significant influence on
hundreds of recipients over IDany years and has been a
great boon to this AcadeIDy. To eIDphasize the iIDportance
of these awards and to broaden the advantages to our
students, and because the Fund realizes very generous
incoITIe each year, the ManageIDent, through its COIDInittee on Instruction, has established the practice of
approving the recolDlDendation of the Faculty for either
first or second awards. These scholarships were first
awarded in 1902.
In 1967, the award of a Cresson Traveling Scholarship
for the first tilDe credited each student with $2,250. of
which $1,600. was used for a sUIDIDer of travel and traveling expenses in Europe, and the reIDaining $650. was
used for AcadeIDY tuition for the two terIDs iID'IDediately
following. Each year the SUIDS IDay vary, as adjustIDents
in tuition charges and traveling expenses dictate. Each
recipient is required to return to the AcadeIDy for the
continuance of regular studio work in an additional year
as an advanced student. He is expected to help set high
professional standards aIDong our students after his
return frolll Europe. In cases of exceptional IDerit, and
when a very decided illlprovelDent is evident, a student
may, through the sa IDe authority, receive the award a
second tillle. COIDpetition for a second scholarship IDust
be entered during the year succeeding the first award,
unless otherwise ruled by the COIDIDittee on Instruction
on written application. The award of a Cresson Traveling
Scholarship the second tilDe credits the student with the
sum established for that year to be used for travel and
traveling expenses, and lllay be used any tilDe within
twenty-eight lllonths after receipt of the award.
EIGHT CRESSON TRAVELING SCHOLARSHIPS WERE
AWARDED IN 1967-Every student thirty-five years of
age or younger at the tilDe of cOIDpetition, in good health
and without knowledge of any physical condition or any
other reason to prevent accepting and properly using such
sc~olarships is eligible for COlD petition for Cresson Travehng Scholarships. COlllpetitors IDUSt have an aggregate
of 96 AcadelllY Winter School weeks to their credit,
which IDUSt have been acculllulated within five (5) years
of the date of COlD petition. The final 32 weeks (two terllls)
IDUSt be s~en~ in the Winter School of the AcadelllY and
IDUSt be WIthIn the year of cOlllpetition.
Evex:y student IDUSt have a ~olllplete and unbroken registr~t.IO? record over the tIllle included in cOlllputing
ehgibilIty except for the tillle he is an advanced student
(see "Registration of Work"). Painters and Graphics
Majors IDUSt also have satisfactorily cOIDpleted the work
in Mate.rials and Techniques and in Lettering and
Perspective. Sculptors IDUSt IDeet the requireInents of
the Sculpture faculty. All financial obligations IDUSt be
fully paid.
All students entering the cOlllpetition are required to
cOIDplete the official application. All work sublllitted in
COlD petition IDUSt be that which has been done in the
Academy classes or for AcadelllY registration. It Inust be
work cOIDpleted within the last 32 weeks of the Winter
School. All work in cOlllpetitions IDUSt be approved and
recorded before entry by two faculty instructors.
All cOIDpetitors are unrestricted as to alllount, size and
variety of work they subIDit in the cOlllpetition groups,
provided they do not exceed the space allotted. Each sculptor's group IDUSt include a cOIDposition. Work lllUSt be
exhibited unfraIDed and unglazed. If tape or stripping is
used to triID unsightly edges of canvas, it lllay be used
to give order rather than enhance and IDUSt not encroach
upon the face of the canvas.
The recipient of a first traveling scholarship lllUSt account for a period of at least 90 days in Europe and an
itinerary and financial report is required for filing in the
school office before October 15.
The recipient of a second traveling scholarship is granted
the SUlll for travel and travel expenses and a general
accounting IDUSt be IDade and filed in the school office
within three IDonths of the end of its use. The student
is not required to return for another period of study
but IDay apply for free tuition should additional study be
advisable. Use of free tuition under such circulllstances
IDay be regulated and arranged with the Adlllinistrator
of the schools.
The Faculty will not recolDlDend awards o~ tra,:,eling
scholarships if, in its opinion, the work Sublllltted.Is not
of sufficient merit to justify such recollllllendatlOn: A
student IDay not be awarded lllore than one travehng
scholarship in any given year and is ineligible for COInpetition after having received two such awards.

THE LEWIS S. WARE MEMORIAL TRAVELING
SCHOLARSHIPS-The Lewis S. Ware Memorial
Traveling Scholarships in accordance with the will of
the testator provide European Traveling Scholarships
in amount and under regulations similar to those of
Cresson Scholarships of that year. These scholarships
will be awarded according to the income available on
the recommendation of the Faculty by the Board of
Directors to students of outstanding merit. These
scholarships were first awarded in 1938 and one Ware
Traveling Scholarship was awarded in 1967 representing an amount of $1600.
THE J. HENRY SCHIEDT MEMORIAL TRAVELING
SCHOLARSHIPS-The J. Henry Schiedt Memorial
Scholarships in accordance with the will of Cornelia
26
Schiedt, provide for the award of Traveling Scholarships according to the income available. The award
of these scholarships will be made on the recommendation of the Faculty by the Board of Directors to
students of outstanding merit. Eligibility for this
competition will be based on the same requirements
as set up for Cresson Awards of that year. These
scholarships are not specifically designed for European
travel. It is therefore possible, under certain circumstances, for a competing student to make application
to the Administrator of the Schools at least three
months before the date of competition for a particular
program. These scholarships were first awarded in 1949
and four Schiedt Traveling Scholarships of $1600. each
were awarded in 1967. The credit may be used any
time within twenty-eight months after receipt of
the award.
ENDOWED PRIZES
THE CHARLES TOPPAN PRIZES-These prizes were
established in 1881 by the gift of Mrs. Charles Toppan,
Miss Harriette R. Toppan and Mr. Robert N. Toppan.
Due to the considerable appreciation in value of this
trust, the following regulations were put into effect
in 1962, enlarging the benefits but adhering to the
positively expressed ter:rns of the original gift that
"The drawing of the work SubIllitted will receive first
attention of the exaIlliners." First awarded in 1882.
"Up to five prizes will be available each year at
the discretion of the COllllllittee on Instruction,
depending on the aIllount of incollle available,
for the best five portfolios or otherwise protected
sets of drawings, Illatted or otherwise exhibitprepared and containing not less than five or Illore
than ten exaIllples, with no liIllit on size, subject
Illatter or Illedia, subIllitted in the spring of each
year by regularly enrolled students, whose records
show attendance for at least two years previous to
the current cOlllpetition. They will be judged by
the faculty, or a COllllllittee of the faculty, and the
winners' work is to be exhibited with the Illajor
cOlllpetition of the season."
