La fresque peinte par Henri de Maistre décorant le choeur de la chapelle (cad. DP 102) : inscription par arrêté du 13 octobre 1993

The Jesuit college of Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague was rebuilt between 1933 and 1935 by the architect Henry Violet. The chapel, made of reinforced concrete, is decorated with a "fresco" illustrating the significant events of the life of Saint Louis de Gonzague (1568-1591), produced by the painter Henri de Maistre, who was the director of the Sacred Art Workshops.
