EBAI
The Vietnam University of Fine Arts (formerly ''Hanoi College of Fine Arts'') is an art school in Hanoi, Vietnam originally established in Tonkin under French colonial rule in 1925. The university has trained many of Vietnam's leading artists and each year it participates in many cultural exchanges with sister institutions overseas. History The history of the Vietnam University of Fine Arts can be traced back to the colonial ''École des Beaux Arts de l’Indochine'' (1925–45) (the ''Indochina College of Fine Arts'') which trained successive generations of Vietnamese students — and a smaller number of students from Cambodia and Laos — in the western art tradition, laying the groundwork for the development of a distinctive Vietnamese style of modern art. The ''École des Beaux-Arts de l’Indochine'' in Hanoi was the predecessor of the Hanoi College of Fine Arts ''( :vi:Trường Đại học Mỹ thuật Việt Nam)''. The ''école'' was established by the French ...

19th-century French Painters
The 19th century began on 1 January 1801 (represented by the Roman numerals MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 (MCM). It was the 9th century of the 2nd millennium. It was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was Abolitionism, abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanded beyond its British homeland for the first time during the 19th century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, France, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century.
