A hand holding a raised snifter is the detail that sets this advertisement apart from the many drinks pictures on the board, and it puts the brand's product front and center rather than a crowded bar scene. Martell is one of the oldest cognac houses, founded in Cognac, France, in 1715, and its Cordon Bleu label has long signaled a premium blend. Cognac advertising of this kind leaned on elegance and craftsmanship to appeal to a moneyed, cosmopolitan audience, so the glass and the gesture carry much of the message.
