HISTORY AND INTRODUCTION
THE HISTORY
The Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts is the oldest art institution
in the United States. Throughout its
history, the best artists in America
have been trained in its school and
the best of their art has been shown
on its walls. However, in the Colonies,
and later in the new Republic, there
were no academies or schools where
an American artist could receive professional training. To start such a
school was the dream of the painter
Charles Willson Peale , who rode with
George Washington during the Revolution, painted the General many
times, and who started "Peale's
Museum" in 1786. But Peale always
wanted a proper Art Academy and
made several attempts before the
Pennsylvania Academy was founded
in 1805.
In 1791 he founded the First "draw-
ing school", and in 1803 he wrote to
his friend Thomas Jefferson of his
hopes to establish "an Academy for
the encouragement of the Fine arts. "
His dream materialized, and his
drawing school matured into the
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine
Arts. The application for its Charter
in 1805 states in part, "The OBJECT
of this association is to promote the
cultivation of the FINE ARTS in the
United States of America .... And
otherwise assisting the studies and
exciting the efforts of the artist
gradually to unfold, enlighten and
invigorate the talents of our countrymen." The Academy received its
Charter in 1806, and by 1810 regular
classes were scheduled.
Students did nOl pay tuition , and instructors served voluntarily. George
Clymer, the Academy's First President was a signer of the Declaration
2
of Independence and the fledglin g
organization included William Rush,
Thomas Sully and Rembrandt Peale.
Several important artists strengthened the school's middle years. John
Sa rtai f1 , the great mezzo tin t engraver, a director of the Academy,
and Christian Schussele were leading
spirits. America's greatest 19th Century artist, Thomas Eakins , began
teaching in 1876, and became Director of the School in 1882.
In 1876 the Academy's Board noted
with pride that in their opinion the
school had no superior in any country.
The Academy has been the initi al
training ground of many important
American artists: Mary Cassatt,
Thomas Eakins, Edwin Austin
Abbey, and William Michael Harnett.
Aspiring students came First to study
with Christian Schussele then with
Thomas Eakins and later with
Thomas Hovenden and Thomas Anshutz. In the early 1900's, there were
William Merritt Chase, Cecilia
Be a ux , Henry O. Tanner, Emil
Carlsen, Robert Vonnoh, Charles
GraAy, Jose ph DeCamp and Henry
Thouron.
The students of the early 20th Century years often acknowledged with
d eep affection and respect their appreciation of the Academy school:
Robert H e nri, William Glackens,
George Luks , John Sloan, A. Sterling
Calder, John Marin, Everett Shinn,
Charles Sheeler, Morton Shamberg,
Charles De muth, Henry McCarte r
and Arthur B. Carles who, along with
Sheeler and Demuth , is one of
America's outstanding Twentieth
Century Modernists. Many wellknown artists, students and teachers
including Hugh H. Breckenridge,
Daniel Garber, Albert Laessle, Ed-
ward Redfield , George Harding ,
Walter Steumpfig , Harry Rosin,
Hobson Pittman, and Franklin Watkins precede the outstanding group
of artists who comprise the present
faculty of the Academy School.
The Pennsylvania Academy is uniqu e
in its tradition of regenerative process wherein each generation of artists
teaching and exhibiting at th e
Academy shares its experience and
expertise with the next succeeding
generation, creating an unbroke n
line of excellence that stretches from
Charles Willson Peale to the present.
The school is housed in a marve lous,
eclectic Victorian building designed
by the great Philadelphia arc hitect
Frank Furness and dedicated in th e
centennial year of 1876. Refurbished
and restored , the building reopened
in the bicentennial year on April 22 ,
1976, aftel- a two-year multi-million
3
dollar restoration. The Academy
buildi ng itself is a work of art. Its light
and airy space and in comparable
studios are imbued to the very foundation with the creative spirit.
In 1962 the Academy purchased the
Belgra via Hotel , 1811 Chestnut
Street, named it after our founder
"Th e Peale H ouse" and transformed
this charmin g example of late 19th
centur y Victorian Baroque architecture into studios and offices to serve
an expandin g student en rollment.
The Peale galleries were created to
show work by young artists of promise a nd to augment the exh ibitions
held at the Academy's galleries in the
Furness buildin g.
The Academy's coll ection, started
with a boatload of casts of antique
sculpture ch osen from Napo leon's
collection by Philadelphia's Nicholas
Biddle a nd Napol eo n 's SCUlprof

or
THE
,
-Jean-Antoine Houdon, was meant in
the beginning to be a teaching tool,
but has grown to prominence as one
'of the nation's great collections of
American Art, the keystone of a
major museum.
This then is the Academy; school, collection and the buildings that house
them, creating, collecting and exhibiting contemporary art for 170 years,
and adhering still to the purpose of
the original charter.
LOCATION
The school is located in the very heart
of Philadelphia and has ready access
to all public transportation serving
the city. Every important museum,
gallery, library, church, theater, music
hall and college or university is convenient to the Academy, and the
Academy studios are easily reached
by the student who might live some
distance. The main building, first occupied in 1876, was designed for the
Academy by Frank Furness, and is a
nationally known architectural
landmark.
THE ACADEMY GALLERIES
The Academy has a unique permanent collection of American paintings, sculpture and prints that affords
the student an opportunity for direct
study of important works of art.
The exhibitions held by the Academy
bring to the student various movements and currents of contemporary
American art.
Special shows are held in the Galleries
throughout the winter season, and in
the spring the works submitted by
students in competition for the many
traveling scholarships and prizes are
on exhibition. Additional special
exhibitions are staged in the Peale
4
House Galleries and continue the
tradition of showing predominately
American art, with an emphasis on
contemporary work.
FACILITIES OF THE SCHOOL
The main building was designed to
make the best use of natural lighting.
The major studios are ample, with
high ceilings and north light. These
are augmented by smaller studios and
areas designated for general criticism.
The majority of classes for first year
students are held at Peale House,
1811 Chestnut St. These studios are
equipped to fit the Preliminary courses
of study, as well as to provide facilities
for Graphics majors and private
studio space. The Graphics Department has facilities for working in
lithography, silk screen and etching
processes. The School has an excellent etching and lithographic press ;
and all basic silk screen techniqu es, and wooded areas near Philadelphia
including photographic processes are for students interested in landscape.
taught. There is a darkroom provided for printing photographic
stencils and plates. All interested students may use the darkroom
equIpment.
The Academy Library provides students with a thorough survey of the
history of art, as well as materials to
stimulate individual inspiration. The
collection includes a clipping file, a
biographical file of artists, books,
magazines, exhibition catalogs and
color reproductions.
Art materials are available in stores
run by the Academy on the premises.
The Academy also sponsors field
trips to various artistic points of
interest. In the past these have included visits to museu ms and galleries in New York and Washington,
and painting expeditions to seashore

REGULATIONS &
REGISTRATION
The Academy realizes tha t maximum
freedom fosters creative effort and
permits unusual devotion to the artist's self-discipline. The minimal regulations will not interfere with artistic
effort and in fact are found to aid in
that effort. Therefore these regulations are to be met for the student to
be eligible for promotio n, individual
studio privileges , scholarships, prizes
and travel awards. Furtherm o r e
those students who desire to a pply
the credit for studio work done at th e
Academy toward an Academic degree must have a complete record of
registration as well as a Faculty evaluation of the quality of the work. This
record will constitute a proper transcript for the Academic University or
College.
Registration requirements are
satisfied when each student has registered one piece of work each month
with each of the artists assigned to
him. Sculpture students are required
to register one figure, one head, one
sculpture done without a model and
five drawings each month.
FINANCIAL AID
Financia l aid is not generally available
to incoming students. Students applying to the Academy do not have the
privilege of most state and federal
loans and grants; i.e. PHEAA or
BEOG. The school is, however, approved for those receiving Veterans,
Social Security, and Rehabilitation
benefits.
The Academy offers its own scholarship program, endowed through
private funds. Scholarships are
awarded in the form of tuition, either
fu ll or hal f. Scholarships do not gen-
erally entai l money for expenses
other than tuition. Competitions are
held each spring with the submission
of work to a faculty jury. Scholarships
are awarded on the basis of talent and
need.
TUITION SCHOLARSHIPS
A number of partial scholarships are
avai lable annually to graduates of the
city high schoo ls and vocationaltechnical schools through the Board
of Public Education of the City of
Philadelph ia.
Students already enro ll ed at the
Academy for two semesters, in good
standing and enrolled at the time of
application, may apply to the
Academy for free full or half tuition
scholarships. Applicants must complete the official forms and submit
them with three works to the Faculty
at the March meeting. College Schol43
arship Service Reports are also required. Approximately twenty-five
scholarships are available and will be
awarded on the recommendation of
the Committee on Instruction and
the Academy Faculty. Preference is
given to students of merit who otherwise would be unable to pursue their
study of art.
These free tuition scholarships have
been made possible by gifts from
Academy friends:

year 1976-1977.
In an effort to spread the free tuition
scholarships to cover the needs to the
fullest possible extent, it is within the
province of the Faculty to recommend a number of half scholarships.
Full free tuition scholarship recipients are required to work for the
school an assigned thirty hour period, during the holding of that year's
scholarship, and half scholarship
students a fifteen hour period. These
obligations may be fulfilled by posing
in the portrait studio or by com44
FOREIGN STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS
The Academy encourages students
from foreign countries by offering a
tuition scholarship for their first year
only. These are awarded by a committee of the Faculty as a result of
their evaluation of the students portfolio. Foreign students who are accepted must present solid evidence of
sufficient funds to enable them to pay
their living and other expenses.
GENERAL INFORMATION

Academy envisio ns the initial e ndowment of $200,000.00 as the first
step in establish ing an effective ongoing sabbatical and visiting artist
program that will benefit both students and faculty.
The Academy gratefu ll y ac kn ow ledges the support of the following
who have generously contributed to
the endowment.

tions Illay be obtained from the
Dean's Office. No single accommodations are ava il able.
VETERANS
The P.A.F.A. is approved for veterans education und er the provi sions
of T itle 38 U.S. Code Section 1776
and the Veterans Administration
Regul ation 14251E. Students enrolled under provision of Title 38
U.S. Code for Veterans Education
are governed by the following:
Veterans must register at least one
piece of work with their respective
assigned teachers no less than once
each month. Vetel-ans will be required to submit monthl y written
verification of such registration for
each class.
The regular schoo l program is
avail able to a veteran only on a
Full-T ime* basis. Even in those situ-
ations where a student is doubly enrolled in the BFA program between
the Academy and either Philadelphia College of Art or the U niversity of Pennsylvania his status must
remain "Full-Time"*. A Veteran
wishing to enroll on a part time
basis will be restricted to the Evening or Summer school programs.
In order to comply with grade and
credit regulations as outlined by the
V A, a student is required to take a
minimum of three evening or summer school courses resulting in at
least three grades and 3.6 semester
credits.
Veterans are subject to all school
academic and disciplinary rules
without exception.
*Fu ll-Time = 12.0 semester credits
(30 clock hours)
Unsatisfactory Progress Students receiving failing grades are placed on
probation for sixty days. If unsatisfactory progress continues beyond
the probationary period, the student's training will be immediately interrupted and all concerned will be
notified accordingly. Students dismissed because of unsatisfactory
progress may apply for re-entrance;
however, each case will be considered
on the basis of the facts involved.
Refund Policy In the event a war orphan or eligible person fails to enter
the course, or withdraws or is discontinued therefrom at any time prior to
completion, the amount charged to
the veteran for tuition, fees, and
other charges for a portion of the
course shall not exceed the approximate pro rata portion of the total
charges for tuition, fees, and other
charges that the length of the completed portion of the course bears to
its total length .
47

comparable previous education and
training, and the training period will
be shortened accordingly.
MEDICAL CERTIFICATION
All students must file with the School
prior to the opening day of the School
Terms in September and January, a
certificate of Good Health , attested to
by the student's family doctor or
other recognized physician. Failure
to file this certificate, will result in
nonregistration of the student until
the attested certificate is filed.
STUDENT AID FUND
In August 1971 a group of friends
and fellow students established a
fund for student aid. "The James E.
Brewton Student Aid Fund" originally created by the proceeds from
the sale of this artist's paintings is the
expression of their love and respect
for him and his expressed concern
for the Academy students. The Student Aid Funds provide short term
loans. Students may apply in the
Dean's Office.
TRANSFER CREDIT
A maximum of two years of studio
credits (48) may be accepted toward
the Academy's four year Certificate.
No transfer credits are acceptable toward the requirements for the Cresson, Schiedt or Ware Scholarships.
FOUR YEAR CERTIFICATE
The Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts grants its Certificate to students who have satisfactorily completed four years of study in the
Academy Schools, or the equivalent
according to the Academy requirements. Only students whose records
are complete according to the final
decision of the School Administration , are eligible for these Certificates. By special arrangement work
done in the Evening or Summer
schools may be credited.
BACHELOR OF FINE ARTS
DEGREE
Because the Academy is devoted ex clusively to the study of Fine Arts it is
not a degree granting institution. A
Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is available, however, in conjunction with
the Philadelphia College of Art or the
University of Pennsylvania. Both institutions recognize the attainment of
the Academy's certificate as satisfying
the studio credit requirements for
their respective BFA programs.

With Academy endorsement based
upon high school graduation and a
secondary school transcript judged
creditable by the Academy, a student
may register in liberal arts at PCA any
time after beginning Academy enrollment. The BFA degree-credit
candidate will be considered to have
fulfilled PCA's studio requirements
upon receipt of the Academy's certificate.
The candidate may begin to earn the
required 45 liberal arts credits in any
semester during his four-year studio
program or after being awarded the
Academy's certificate. Subject to
Academy requirements, he may register for any number of liberal arts
credits per semester. Upon submission of an official transcript of prior
•
liberal arts study, he may be awarded
a maximum 12 transfer credi ts toward PCA's requirements for the
BFA degree."

SCHOLARSHIPS AND PRIZES
THE WILLIAM EMLEN
CRESSON MEMORIAL
TRA VELING SCHOLARSHIPS
By the liberal provisions of the wills of
Emle n Cresso n and Priscilla P., his
wife, a Fund has been created as a
memorial to their deceased son,
William Emlen Cresson, Academician, the inco me from which is to be
appli e d b y the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in sending
pupils of m e rit to Europe . These
scholarships shall be awarded under
su ch rul es and regulations as shall be
ado pte d from time to time b y the
Board of Directors of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. The
award of Cresson Scholarships has
had significant influ e nce on hundreds of r ecipients over many years
a nd has bee n a great boon to this
Academy. In the Spring of 1969 the
one thousandth award was made. To
emphasize th e importan ce of these
awards and to broaden th e advantages to our students, and because the
Fund realizes very generous inco me
each year, the Manageme nt, through
its Committee on Instruction, has established the practice of approving
the r eco mmendation of the Faculty
for either first or seco nd awards.
These scholarships were first awarded in 1902.
In 1975 , the award of a Cresson
Traveling Scholarship credited eac h
student with $3,100 of which $2, 000
was used for a summer of travel a nd
traveling expenses in Europe, and
the remaining $1,100 was used for
Academy tuition for the two terms
immediately following. Eac h yea r" the
sums may vary, as adjustments in tuition charges and traveling expenses
dictate. Each recipient is required to
return to the Academy for th e con53
tinuance of regular studio work in an
a ddition a l year as an advanced student. H e is expected to help set high
professional standards among our
students after his return from Europe . In cases of exceptional merit,
a nd when a very decided improvem e nt is ev id ent, a student may,
through the same authority, receive
the award a second tim e. Competition for a second scholarship must be
e ntered during the year succeeding
th e first award, unless otherwise
rule d b y the Committee on Instruction on written app li cation. The
award of a Cresson Traveling Scholarship th e second time credits the
student with the sum established for"
that year to be used for travel and
u"aveling ex p e ns es, a nd may be used
a ny time within twe nty-e ight months
after r eceipt o f the award.
Eight Cresson Traveling Scholar-
ships were awarded in 1975. Every
student in good health and without
knowledge of any physical condition
or any other reason to prevent accepting and properly using such scholarships is eligible for competition for
Cresson Traveling Scholarships.
Competitors must have an aggregate
of 90 Academy Winter School weeks
to their credit which must have been
accumulated within five (5) years of
the date of competition. The final 30
weeks (two terms) must be spent in
the Winter School of the Academy
and must be within the year of competition. One summer and one semester of even ing school or two semesters of evening school may be allowed
as equivalent of on~ semester by special approval of the faculty and administration.
Every student must have a complete
and unbroken registration record.
Painters and Graphics Majors must
also have satisfactorily completed the
work in Materials and Techniques in
Perspective and Art History. Sculptors must meet the requirements of
the Sculpture faculty and attend the
Art History lectures. All financial obligations must be fully paid.
All students entering the competition
are required to complete the official
application. All work submitted in
competition must be that which has
been done in the Academy studios or
for Academy registration. It must be
work completed within the last 30
weeks of the Winter School. All work
in competitions must be approved
and recorded before entry by two
Faculty instructors.
All competitors are unrestricted as to
amount, size and variety of work they
submit in the competition groups,
provided they do not exceed the
54
space allotted. Each sculptor's group
must include a composition. Work
must be exhibited unframed and unglazed. If tape or stripping is used to
trim unsightly edges of canvas, it may
be used to give order rather than enhance and must not encroach upon
the face of the canvas.
The recipient of a first traveling
scholarship must 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 sum for
travel and travel expenses and a general accounting must be made and
filed in the school office within three
months of the end of its use. The
student is not required to return for
another period of study but ma y
apply for free tuition should addi-
tional study be advisable. Use of free
tuition under such circumstances
may be regulated and arranged with
the Dean of the schools.
The Faculty will not recommend
awards of traveling scholarships if, in
its opinion, the work submitted is not
of sufficient merit to justify such recommendation . A student may not be
awarded more than one traveling
scholarship in any given year and is
ineligible for com petition after having received two such awards.
THE LEWIS S. WARE MEMORIAL
TRA VELING 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 Trustees
to students of outstanding merit.
These Scholarships were first awarded
in 1938, one Ware Traveling Scholarship was awarded in 1975 representing an amount of $2000.
THE J. HENRY SCHIEDT
MEMORIAL TRAVELING
SCHOLARSHIPS
The J. Henry Schiedt Memorial
Scholarships in accordance with the
will of Cornelia 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 Trustees
to students of outstanding merit.
Eligibility for this competition will be
based on the same requirements as
55
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
Dean of the Schools at least three
months before the date of competition for a particular program . These
Scholarships were first awarded in
1949 and five Schiedt Traveling
Scholarships of $2000 each were
awarded in 1975. The credit may be
used any time within twenty-eight
months after receipt of the award.
