EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Women Art Class ca 1868" captures a significant moment in the world of art. The oil canvas, measuring 26 7/8 x 23 1/4 inches, showcases a scene from an art class conducted by Louis Lang, a renowned portraitist born in Germany in 1814. In this historical snapshot, we witness the dedication and passion of these women artists as they immerse themselves in their craft. Lang arrived in Philadelphia in 1838 and soon became known for his exceptional skills as both an artist and teacher. He founded painting classes at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, which was established back in 1805. The setting depicted here is comparable to those found in New York City during that era. After settling there permanently in 1849, Lang played a pivotal role within the artistic community. His teachings inspired countless aspiring painters who sought to refine their skills under his guidance. This print not only serves as a testament to Lang's influence but also highlights the importance of female artists during this time period. Despite societal barriers faced by women seeking education or professional opportunities, these determined individuals were able to study and create within galleries associated with the Philadelphia School of Design. As we admire this piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, let us celebrate both Louis Lang's contributions to American art history and recognize the resilience and talent exhibited by these pioneering women artists.
