The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La façade sur jardin se compose de deux bâtiments réunis par un escalier éclairé par des fenêtres jumelées en plein cintre. Toutes les baies sont encadrées de moulures encore gothiques (de l'extrême fin du 15e siècle) amorties par des culots sculptés. L'ensemble de la façade est néanmoins de style Renaissance, du 16e siècle. Une série de médaillons sculptés orne la frise qui sépare les deux étages du bâtiment.

The garden façade consists of two buildings joined by a staircase lit by paired round-arch windows. All openings are framed with mouldings still Gothic in style (from the very end of the 15th century) terminated by sculpted corbels. The whole of the façade is nevertheless Renaissance in style, from the 16th century. A series of sculpted medallions adorns the frieze which separates the two storeys of the building.
