As you can see from the illustrations in the references, they are not paintings and probably reliquaries rather than pictures.

I agree with what B D Finch has found, what I was able to find deals mainly with Asian arts. Not that of Quebec, where this "tableaux en papiers roules" originated.

pictures in filigree paperwork
I believe this is not a matter of the paper on which the work is done being rolled up (like a scroll), but instead of the works themselves being made of bands or strips of rolled paper. That is known as "quilling" or "paper filigree" in English.
From the Wikipedia entry on quilling at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quilling :
"During the Renaissance, French and Italian nuns and monks used quilling to decorate book covers and religious items. The paper most commonly used was strips of paper trimmed from the gilded edges of books. These gilded paper strips were then rolled to create the quilled shapes. Quilling often imitated the original ironwork of the day."

http://www.nytimes.com/1988/05/08/arts/antiques-paper-filigr...
I think "quilling" sounds a bit more folksy than "paper filigree," so I'd be inclined to use the latter for antiques. This New York Times article uses "filigree paperwork," and I think that option sounds good here, as well:
http://www.nytimes.com/1988/05/08/arts/antiques-paper-filigr...
However, any of the three - "quilling," "paper filigree" or "filigree paperwork" - would be correct.

B D Finch
: I believe that paper filigree and quilling are not quite the same, though they do overlap. Filigree can be a particular type of quilling or it can be done without rolling the paper.

"Quilling" and "paper filigree" are synonyms, according to both the sites I cited and your link to "quillingwonderland.com."
