I'll make it easier by telling you it's a Russian language website, but that's all I'm going to say about the source.

Is it on an official website of a Russian classic car magazine?

I don't think so

Approaching six months now without a solution. To recap:
  • privately-built one-off
  • Sénéchal-based/powered
  • constructed in Orléans, France during the 1930s
Helpful hint:

Now we know 'what' and 'where'; we just need 'by whom'.

None of the subsequent questions have had anything to do with the builder's identity. ;)

Constructor Jean Caillas!
Well found!

(By the way, this is the same Jean Caillas who created the Jicey Formula 1 cars.)
