In 1865, Henry Van Ingen was given charge of the School of art at Vassar College, at first the only member of the faculty. The Vassar College Art Gallery opened that year under his direction. The students used it as a studio, and at times copied the paintings. He remained at Vassar for the remainder of his life, living in a small house near the campus with occasional trips back to Europe. Under his leadership, the school grew from an initial curriculum of practical studio exercises to include studies of art history and criticism. He was also instrumental in building the school's valuable collection of oils, paper sketches and plaster casts.
