Art Students League of New York
Art Students League of New York. An art school established in 1875 when that of the
National Academy of Design temporarily closed. Unlike the Academy School (which reopened in 1877), the Art Students League had no entrance requirements and no set course. Its more progressive methods soon attracted many students—by the turn of the century the enrolment stood at nearly 1,000 and it was established as the most important art school in the country. The teachers have included
Benton,
Chase,
Eakins,
Henri,
Saint-Gaudens, and
Sloan; and the students have included many of the most illustrious figures in 20th-century American art.
