Arte

Both animes are set in the past and they travel for work. They sort of start out similar where the main character starts at the bottom and works their way up to their current job. In a way you can say both their job types are artistic. Obviously Arte is about painting but VE learns to express herself artistically through her writing.

In Arte, the main character is also a woman aspiring to learn a trade, painting portraits of clients. In Violet Evergarden, the main character learns the trade of writing letters for clients. As they work for their clients, they learn about them, they gain respect for them, and they gain a friend.
Both are historical fiction taking place in a European setting. In either, there is a blossoming romance with someone they idolize, although in Violet Evergarden it is a side plot.
Coincidentally, both shows are named after the main character.

Both series have similar appearing protagonists, both of whom are independent young women who are looking to explore human emotions through developing their technical and artistic skills. Both series also take place in pre-modern European-style settings, although Arte is more pre-industrial. Both have little if any sexualization--the protagonists carry the story with their personalities and principles rather than with their chests.

Both have an amazing, emotional, slice of life storyline backed by phenomenal scores, and the animation for them is among the best I've ever seen. The main character is an ambitious female who wants to learn more of life through drawing and ARTE has a tough conversations and plenty of feelings . ARTE and Violet want to upgrade their skills and win the challenges they face . Both are examples of a love it or hate it anime, but if you enjoyed one, I'm almost positive you will also enjoy the other.
