PRE SAINT GERVAIS (93) - PAPIERS PEINTS XVIIIème / Relics of 2 fragments of wallpaper, whose history the former collector tells: on May 4, 1901, he bought them from the demolishers of a house at 90 rue Platrière in Le Pré Saint-Gervais, known as the "Belle Gabrielle" house (Gabrielle d'Estrée, Henri IV's mistress), which was said to have sheltered their amorous passions - in fact, as a history buff, he wanted to stop the demolition of this heritage and alerted his friend Paul Delay, a journalist with L'Echo de Paris, who sent him a letter (aut. signed. of 4 p), we learn that he had investigated and visited the site with a specialist, and in fact this house was at most Louis XIII, "besides the ceiling paintings are by Dupuis who was born in 1608 while Gabrielle died in 1599", the original house had certainly been partly transformed - the journalist learned that the new owner was Count Foy (grandson of the Empire general) and that he had already sold the ceiling to an antique dealer - our collector continued to investigate this house and enclosed a set of notes and documents, including the Dupuis ceiling buyer's card - The collector assumes that the 2 wallpaper fragments are from the Fabrique de Jean-Baptiste Révillon (1725-1811), the smaller of which has underneath a first layer of 18th-century print and a second of 17th-century manuscript fragments re-used to support the wallpaper
