Biography

Byse was born in London in 1849 but did not begin practising sculpture until 1893 when she went to Geneva where she was taught by Jules Salmson, the director of the School of Industrial Arts there.[1] Subsequently, she studied in Rome, Florence and Paris.[2] Byse produced numerous busts and head figures, which she mainly exhibited in Paris with the Salon des Artistes Francais but also at the Royal Academy in London during 1902.[2][3] Her bronze bust of Alexandre Vinet is in the Wellcome Collection in London.[4]

gollark: I asked on the FTB subreddit where I could get a recipe dump. This time I mentioned CC.```Some random person: You can do file I/O from text without issue.Someone probably wrote a CSV API.Once you define the format all you have to do is edit the file in the CC directory.Me: I can't actually find anything which will output the recipes in any format.SRP: You will have to create, essentially, you're own API to do that using the file I/O as your basis.```They win the Missing the Point award!
