On the first floor, the Founder’s Lounge embodies the memory and soul of the Maison. Its dark wood paneling evokes a signature phenomenon of the cognac cellars: la part des anges the natural evaporation of cognac that gradually blackens the walls over time.
This effect was intentionally incorporated into the décor, highlighting the connection between the aging process of cognac and the passage of time.
The space is anchored by a central piece: a portrait of Félix Courvoisier, painted by Véronique Van Der Esch, known for her figurative and realistic style, working exclusively in oil on canvas.
Inspired by photographs and sketches, the portrait pays tribute to the visionary founder, watching over his legacy with a timeless presence.
