History

[edit]

It was built from 1885 to 1890 for Paul Yver, the brother-in-law of business tycoon Jean-Félix Bapterosses, the owner of the Emaux de Briare.[1][2] The ceiling in the lounge was painted by Henri Harpignies.[3] After invitation the Austrian artist Adam Jankowski worked there for one year.
