Abstract:

Êcole Des Beaux-Arts art school, which was first established in 1648 by Cardinal Mazarın in Paris, France, aimed to train architects, painters and sculptors, briefly artists, and was accepted as a very important institution that prioritizes this. Architect candidates, who came from all over the world to study at this school in France, ensured the spread of the Beaux-Arts school's teachings in a short time after graduating from the school. The Beaux-Arts school is often thought of as either a school of classicism or an expression of academicism inspired by the neoclassicism of the 18th century. Four main concepts were decisive in the architectural designs of this school, which had different importance in different periods. They are “Parti”, “Caractêrê”, “Composition” and “Economie”. Along with the westernization period, students were sent to Europe, especially to Paris, not only that, but also the embassies opened mutually and the relations were strengthened. Inspired by the Ecole Des Beaux-Arts, the institution has officially documented this situation of the Ottoman Empire, which entered the process of opening up to the world and modernity in practice, in art. The opening of many schools similar to the Beaux-Arts education program in Istanbul and other countries is the most important proof that the center of 19th century art is now Paris. Even after these schools were opened, studying in Paris art schools has become a privilege not only for Turkish students but also for students from Europe and other continental countries. Only seven students from Turkey went to study architecture at the Beaux-Arts school in Paris. Some of them came to the forefront with the important works they made in other European countries.
