The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Immeuble du 19e siècle occupé au rez-de-chaussée par un bar, qui, en 1910, s'appelle le Pinzaronne Bar. Son décor, non signé, date vraisemblablement de cette époque. La devanture extérieure comporte une devanture en bois et deux panneaux en céramique représentant des citrons et des oranges alternés de texte : Vermouth, Martini et Rossi Turin. Il semble que ce bar était le dépositaire français de la Société de Vermouth Martini et Rossi. A l'intérieur, les murs et le plafond sont aussi recouverts de panneaux céramique reprenant la même iconographie mêlée à des glycines et ponctuée par quatre personnages féminins représentant : la Vénétie, le Piémont, la Lombardie, la Ligurie. Au plafond sont disposés des panneaux d'agrumes.

19th-century building occupied on the ground floor by a bar, which, in 1910, was called the Pinzaronne Bar. Its unsigned decoration dates presumably from that period. The exterior frontage comprises a wooden shopfront and two ceramic panels representing lemons and oranges alternating with text: Vermouth, Martini and Rossi Turin. It appears that this bar was the French depositary of the Martini and Rossi Vermouth Company. Inside, the walls and ceiling are also covered with ceramic panels depicting the same iconography mixed with wisteria and punctuated by four female figures representing: Veneto, Piedmont, Lombardy, Liguria. On the ceiling are arranged panels of citrus fruits.
