Académie Julian
The Académie Julian was an art school in Paris, France.
Rodolphe Julian established the Académie Julian in 1868 at the Passage des Panoramas, as a private studio school for art students. At the time, the government sanctioned art school of France, École des Beaux-Arts, did not allow women to enroll for study, but the new Académie Julian permitted them to enroll.

Over time, Académie Julian, opened schools in other locations. In addition to the original school at Passage des Panoramas, studios were at no. 31 Rue du Dragon in the 6e arrondissement.
In 1888 – 1889, Les Nabis originated as a rebellious group of young student artists who banded together at the Académie Julian.
Académie Julian integrated with École Supérieure d'Arts Graphiques-Penninghen in 1968.
