The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La façade principale a été en partie transformée, mais conserve, au-dessus d'une fenêtre du rez-de-chaussée ayant remplacé la porte primitive, une frise sculptée de trois écussons accompagnés d'entrelacs et timbrés de monogrammes. Au-dessus, un cartouche meublé d'armoiries, qui ont été bûchées, est surmonté d'un bandeau mouluré très saillant, soutenant un tympan courbe à coquille de pinacles et crochets. Les fenêtres de l'étage supérieur sont accostées de pilastres.

The main façade has been partly transformed, but retains, above a ground-floor window having replaced the primitive door, a carved frieze of three shields accompanied by interlacing and marked with monograms. Above, a cartouche charged with armorial bearings, which have been erased, is surmounted by a very projecting moulded band, supporting a curved tympanum with a scallop shell of pinnacles and crockets. The windows of the upper storey are flanked by pilasters.
