  • Violet Oakley: Pennsylvania’S Premiere Muralist
    1 VIOLET OAKLEY: PENNSYLVANIA’S PREMIERE MURALIST Susan Hamburger Paper and slide presentation Pennsylvania Historical Association October 14, 1995 [SLIDE 1] Violet Oakley--a versatile portraitist, illustrator, stained glass artisan, and muralist--earned a reputation as the first American woman artist to succeed in the predominantly-male architectural field of mural decoration. Her strong commitment to her religion and world peace influenced her art as well as her life. [SLIDE 2] Oakley was born in Bergen Heights, New Jersey, to the artistic family of Arthur Edmund Oakley and Cornelia Swain Oakley. Both of her grandfathers, George Oakley and William Swain, belonged to the National Academy of Design and two of her aunts studied painting in Munich with Frank Duveneck. She believed that her compulsion to draw was “hereditary and chronic.” She once commented that she must have been “a monk in some earlier state of existence....The abbesses and sisters were too busy nursing the sick and doing fine needleworks. I never heard of them illuminating manuscripts. I am quite sure I was a monk.” 1 The youngest of three children, Violet followed her sisters Cornelia and Hester in learning the acceptable feminine skills of poetry writing, piano playing, 2 and sketching. While Hester attended Vassar College, Violet’s asthma prevented her from obtaining a college education which her parents thought too rigorous for her physical condition. She never let the asthma impede her artistic education or career. In 1892, at the age of eighteen, Oakley commuted to New York City to study at the Art Students’ League with Irving R.
