Académie Suisse
The Académie Suisse was an art school founded by Charles Suisse in 1815,[1] and was located at the corner of the Quai des Orfévres and the Boulevard du Palais, in Paris, France. From Delacroix to Cézanne, most major French artists frequented this place to meet colleagues or to study after the models supplied.
History
According to Monneret, Charles Suisse was a former model of Jacques-Louis David.[2][3] The Académie Suisse school was smaller and more informal than the École des Beaux Arts, where many students went on to continue their studies.[4]
In 1870, Suisse sold the art school location to Italian sculptor Filippo Colarossi, and it became the Académie Colarossi.[5]

gollark: I think my most practical (in that it mostly works and performed a function you could barely describe as being maybe useful) project on github is the MemeEconomy Autotrader bot I wrote ages ago, to make excessive amounts of money on r/memeeconomy.
gollark: Oh, I see. Cool.
gollark: I don't know leafo.
gollark: Hmm, actually looking at my projects list has reminded me, I should fix my `stack-overflow-import` fork somehow.
gollark: I don't, actually.
