Historically Vôtre brings together 3 characters whose name is forever associated with the pipe: the surrealist painter René Magritte who has a pipe.
Even if he himself wrote on his board “This is not a pipe”.
Yes, it's true, it's a painting!
Then the genius filmmaker Jacques Tati who put a pipe in the mouth of his deliciously old-fashioned hero, Monsieur Hulot, whom he himself embodied, to show a certain candor in the face of modernity ... And a man who smokes pipe (yes yes!) which a pipe made his political career go up in smoke: Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
