Comment

The chapel's sacristy houses two so-called primitive works, a Vierge de miséricorde by J. Mirhalet and, on the same theme, a work attributed to Louis Brea. The Romain-Gary heritage library holds one of these missals, dated 1442, which is the only known copy for this period in the Nice diocese. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapelle_de_la_Mis%C3%A9ricorde_de_Nice
