This "Library" appears to be a lithographer's workshop. The old lithographers often mixed their own colors and mixed pigments for their artworks. It was a HIGHLY involved process. Most lithographers back in the day made their greatest money doing medical/technical drawing/printwork and later as cinema took off advertisements for theatres and consumer products became more the bread and butter until it slowly became replaced by more easily mass produced work. Think Anatomical charts and printings for medical textbooks as the earlier projects. That could explain all of what you see. Also, mercury and other chemicals were also often use to produce the types of colors or "setting" media they needed.
It is General de Gaulles speech to the french people, when ww2 was over and it's him on wall too. Mercury is pretty dangerous, it's also known as quicksilver. It's not about medicin but making lithographs. He could have made the posters himself
My mother, now 82, has has a long career as a printmaker, specializing in etchings, woodcuts, and silkscreens. We grew up with an artist’s studio in our house in Lexington, Kentucky, where there was routinely an open tray of sulphuric acid for etching her plates.
I'm always impressed with the architecture and condition of the places you explore. I wish we had that rich history here in the States. But unfortunately vandals can't resist demolishing anything that's abandoned. Thank you for bringing these beautiful places to us 👍✌️
Yes this place was definitely owned by someone working in graphics design. The little frame in the library is a certificate of lithographe (old printing technique with stone).
I am so impressed with you and your team, you are always so respectable to the places you guys go and treat the things within remembering that they were real,people living their lives. Thank you so much for the awesome work you and your team does.
The ceiling of the library is incredible! I haven’t been able to watch in awhile, you guys are just better than ever.
As always... I'm so grateful for the respect you show these places!! Your humility and respect are very commendable.
Woow, a new video from my dear friend Lesley! - How great is that? - That is an incredible castle with this tower. - Beautiful
I just loved the tower. Your enthusiasm and sheer excitement in what you find and the family story you are able to uncover and put together for us viewers is catching. Thank you 🌻

I am an insane book lover and I have a special interest and curiosity about very old books, so if I was there in that library, I would probably spent two or three days in there without turning back! Thank you Lesley for showing me this wonderful, wonderful place. It's like walking into a fantasy world! Love every bit of your video! I really appreciate you for paying so much of respect towards these valuable places. Greetings from Sri Lanka!
I really love the ambient music you play in the videos, Ambient music is my favorite to listen to all the time. Very soothing and really draws you in especially when watching anything that has ambience in it. Also thank you so much for taking us into these tours with you, greatly appreciate you!
I saw a French chateaux that was remodeled by a boutique hotel. It was fabulous and rents for only 100k euro per week! 😀💛
The soldier painted on th wall is the GENERAL DE GAULLE !!!!! Who, from the UK, saved France with the allies. He was notably head of Free France then leader of the French National Liberation Committee during World War II, President of the Provisional Government of the French Republic from 1944 to 1946, President of the Council of Ministers from 1958 to 1959, instigator of the Fifth Republic , founded in 1958, and President of the Republic from 1959 to 1969, being the first to occupy the supreme magistracy under this regime.
Those mahogany book cabinets in the Medical Library are fabulous! I will repurpose them and use them in my kitchen.
Lithographic refers to printing, so those bottles probably contained powered ink.
Great video, Lesley! I think some of the colors in the large cabinet may have been for painting. In the large book that had "the young lady with the puppy", those were called Victorian scrap. They were used to decorate the inside of books, crafts and Christmas ones were used to make ornaments for the Christmas tree. Ernst Freihoff, founded in 1948, is the only company that still makes scrap.
