The École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts was founded in 1748 by the Conseil des Deux-Cents under the name École de Dessein (English: Drawing School). Pierre Soubeyran, the Genevan-French engraver served as the director of the school from 1709 to 1775.[3]
From 1826 to 1872, the school was located at place de Neuve (basement of the Musée Rath).[3] From 1872 to 1903, the school was located at current rue du Général-Dufour (a school known as Grutli).[3] After having occupied various locations in the city of Geneva, the school occupied the building on Boulevard Helvétique in 1903.[3]
In 2001, it became the Geneva School of Fine Arts (ESBA), before merging in 2006 with the Geneva University of Art and Design (HEAD).[1][3]
