Academy of Painting (Шаблон:Lang-es), also known as the School of Fine Arts of Santiago (Шаблон:Lang-es de Santiago), was a Chilean art school, founded on March 17, 1849 in Santiago, Chile. The school produced many works for the Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts, where it once was located. In 1932, it merged with and is now known as the Department of Visual Arts within the Arts Faculty, University of Chile.

History

The creation of the Academy of Painting was part of the educational plan of President Manuel Bulnes. The academy was originally located in the building belonging to the San Felipe University, in what is today the Municipal Theatre of Santiago. The school name changed to Escuela de Bellas Artes from 1891 until 1932. Various changes led the academy to merge with the Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts (Шаблон:Lang-es) in 1910, and then later to hand its administration over to the University of Chile in 1932.

The Academy of Painting would produce the country of Chile's first national artists. Despite the significance of the academy, some art historians criticized the early period (1849 to 1915) as one of the dullest in the history of Chilean art and have based their criticism on first Director Alejandro Ciccarelli's attempt to copy the European model of teaching art.
