THE ANATOLE SUITE tells the tale of Uncle Anatole, a seasoned traveller recently returned from abroad, bringing a whole collection of souvenirs. Two magnificent, antique model boats show his love for the sea. Anatole also collects orientalist paintings, particularly Cortès and Pascal; the mirrors, screen and the 18th Century canopy over the bed are other gems brought back from his travels.
The antechamber is home to a desk, perfect for planning the next trip. Visitors to the suite are greeted by a portrait of Anatole in his younger years.
THE APHRODITE SUITE features a spectacular round bed, surrounded by soft, diaphanous draped voile, the perfect place to relax in privacy.
The suite is decorated in soothing greys and blues, reflecting the soft tones of an 18th Century Vernet-style screen. A number of extremely fine orientalist paintings add to the overall effect.
The suite opens out onto a private terrace of 30m2, with spectacular views on the garden. Visitors are welcome to take their breakfast or to enjoy an aperitif on the terrace. The suite also features a second, smaller room.
THE CONSUL SUITE is decorated in the style of the Napoleonic period, when the fashion was for all things exotic. A collection of lithographs of the Bosphorus in the antechamber sits alongside a superb collection of antique trunks.
The typical furniture, notably the armchairs – replicas of the throne of Tutankhamun – is set off by a palate of warm cumin, black and brown tones.
The orientalist spirit can also be seen in a series of engravings representing Napoleon’s first trip to Egypt, reflecting the fashion for exotic travel. The suite is oriented west, offering a glimpse of the Papal Palace from the windows.
THE NAPLES SUITE is home to a stunning collection of gouache paintings of Mt Vesuvius erupting. The artworks are set off by the matte grey walls of the main room.
Three huge, south-facing windows look out over the garden. Majestic bed hangings, suspended from an 18th Century canopy, sit alongside a modern headboard designed by Gilles Jauffret.
The simple, clean lines of the light fixtures, imported from Morocco, add a graphic touch to the décor.
La suite Venise est riche d’une collection de plus de 40 gouaches représentant différentes vues architecturales de la cité lacustre, du 18ème au 19ème.
Les œuvres sont mises en valeurs par un camaïeu de bleus et de gris.
Vous ferez ici un beau voyage en Italie mais au cœur de la Provence… Un clin d’œil, car l’architecture d’Avignon trouve, pour de nombreux palais, inspiration dans l’art italien, les légats ayant fait appel à des hommes de l’art qu’ils ont fait oeuvrer à Avignon.
Un lustre iris années 20 et des fauteuils coquilles années 70 invitent à la lecture d’ouvrages consacrés à Venise.
