ThePrix de Rome (pronounced[pʁidəʁɔm]) orGrand Prix de Rome[1] was a French scholarship for arts students, initially for painters and sculptors, that was established in 1663 during the reign ofLouis XIV of France. Winners were awarded a bursary that allowed them to stay inRome for three to five years at the expense of the state. The prize was extended to architecture in 1720, music in 1803 and engraving in 1804. The prestigious award was abolished in 1968 byAndré Malraux, then Minister of Culture, following theMay 68 riots that called for cultural change.[2]
The Prix de Rome was initially created for painters and sculptors in 1663 in France, during the reign ofLouis XIV. It was an annualbursary for promising artists having proved their talents by completing a very difficult elimination contest. To succeed, a student had to create a sketch on an assigned topic while isolated in a closed booth with no reference material to draw on.[3] The prize, organised by theAcadémie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture (Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture), was open to their students. From 1666, the award winner could win a stay of three to five years at thePalazzo Mancini in Rome at the expense of the King of France. In 1720, the Académie Royale d’Architecture began a prize in architecture. Six painters, four sculptors, and two architects[4] would be sent to theFrench Academy in Rome founded byJean-Baptiste Colbert from 1666.
Expanded after 140 years into five categories, the contest started in 1663 as two categories: painting and sculpture. Architecture was added in 1720. In 1803, music was added, and after 1804 there was aprix for engraving as well. The primary winner took the "First Grand Prize" (called theagréé),[5] and the "Second Prizes" were awarded to the runners-up.
In 1803,Napoleon Bonaparte moved the French Academy in Rome to theVilla Medici, with the intention of preserving an institution once threatened by theFrench Revolution. At first, the villa and its gardens were in a sad state, and they had to be renovated in order to house the winners of the Prix de Rome. In this way, he hoped to retain for young French artists the opportunity to see and copy the masterpieces of antiquity and the Renaissance.
Jacques-Louis David, having failed to win the prize three years in a row, considered suicide.Édouard Manet,Edgar Degas,Ernest Chausson, andMaurice Ravel attempted the Prix de Rome but did not gain recognition. Ravel tried a total of five times to win the prize, and the last failed attempt in 1905 was so controversial that it led to a complete reorganization of the administration at theParis Conservatory.
DuringWorld War II (1939–45), the prize winners were accommodated in theVilla Paradiso inNice.[6]The Prix de Rome was abolished in 1968 byAndré Malraux, who was Minister of Culture at the time. Since then, a number of contests have been created, and the academies, together with theInstitut de France, were merged by the State and the Minister of Culture. Selected residents now have an opportunity for study during an 18-month (sometimes 2-year) stay at The Academy of France in Rome, which is accommodated in the Villa Medici.
The heyday of the Prix de Rome was during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.[7] It was later imitated by thePrix Abd-el-Tif and theVilla Abd-el-Tif in Algiers, 1907–1961, and laterPrix d'Indochine including a bursary to visit theÉcole des Beaux-Arts de l'Indochine inHanoi, 1920–1939, and bursary for residence at theCasa de Velázquez inMadrid, 1929–present.
The Prix de Rome for Architecture was created in 1720.

The required composition was originally acantata for solo voice and orchestra; later one male and female voice were specified; and later still three voices. Titles of the pieces have generally been restricted to "cantata", "lyric scene" or "dramatic scene".[15]
A Prix de Rome was also established in theKingdom of Holland byLodewijk Napoleon to award young artists and architects. During the years 1807–1810 prize winners were sent to Paris and onwards to Rome for study. In 1817, after theNetherlands had gained its independence,King Willem I restarted the prize; though it took until 1823 before the new "Royal Academies" of Amsterdam and Antwerp could organize the juries. Suspended in 1851 it was reinstated in 1870 byWilliam III of the Netherlands. Since then the winners have been selected by the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam under the main headings of architecture and the visual arts.
The Belgian Prix de Rome (Dutch: Prijs van Rome) is an award for young artists, created in 1832, following the example of the original French Prix de Rome. TheRoyal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp organised the prize until 1920, when the national government took over. The first prize is also sometimes called the Grand Prix de Rome. There were distinct categories for architecture, painting, sculpture and music.
