First Turkish painters appeared no earlier than the mid 19th century during the Ottoman Empire era. (However, there were a few miniaturists before the 19th century.) In the 19th century the art training was offered to male painters only. But a few women painters also appeared who learned painting by private lessons. The first Turkish woman painter was Müfide Kadri. [1]The first art academy for girls was Sanayi'i Nefise which became co-educational in 1914. [2] During the Turkish Republic era, art training was promoted by the government and beginning by 1930 painting courses were added to the curriculum of the schools.
