The house holds an artwork of the utmost importance that can be dated to around 1500.
It is a beautiful and unexpected figurative relief that covers, like a tapestry, the entire first floor. The bas-relief portrays kings and queens, with their crown and sceptre, against a background of plant motifs. Different scenes are depicted over the windows: a troubadour and his damsel, a wild boar hunt, and pairs of fantastic beasts facing up to each other.
This piece, which follows the style of the Late Gothic in Central Europe, is inspired by German engravings from the end of the 15th century and early years of the 16th. It is a truly exceptional work of art.
