The first Turkish painters appeared no earlier than the mid-19th century during the Ottoman Empire era. The first art academy in Turkey was established in the 19th century but was meant only for male art students. Therefore, art remained gender-segregated until 1914, when an art school for women was established, but still, they could work under strict rules since working on nude models of the opposite sex was prohibited. The daughters of the enlightened people in Turkish society were allowed to participate in art privately, and they could not make it a career. Therefore, coming from such families, a girl child could get support from the family but only to practice art as a hobby and not as a profession. The portrayal of female artists in Turkey initially did not intend to show them as skilled people as their male counterparts could have been portrayed. It showed the female artists as people operating in the shadows of male artists and thus could not fit on the same continuum. The first Turkish woman painter was Müfide Kadri. (1889-1912) and the first Turkish woman sculptor was Sabiha Ziya Bengütaş. The first art academy for girls was Sanayi'i Nefise which became co-educational in 1914. During the Turkish Republic-era, art training was promoted by the government, and beginning in 1930 painting courses were added to the curriculum of the schools.
