Gifts for Dog Lovers and Francophiles

Anybody out there love dogs? Or funny cars? Or all things French? Then listen up, because it's time to take a break and say hello to Gigi and Alphonse. With these two cuties and their car on the wall, all us dog-lovers can just lighten up for a while. A well-travelled duo, "Gigi and Alphonse" are cheering people up far from the dogs' own home in Provence. In fact, these two canines can even be found on an office wall in Albania.

This whimsical art print makes a wonderful gift. Why not buy one for those special dog lovers, offbeat-car buffs, or francophiles in your life? With its rich, warm tones, "Gigi" frames beautifully and fits gracefully within a wide range of decor.

Wondering whether these giclee "cardogs" would work in your own environment? Then take advantage of the Four Winds Art (FWA) two-week trial. If, upon receiving your print, you discover that "Gigi and Alphonse" bark too much or are otherwise uncongenial, simply return the dogs within fourteen days for a refund of the purchase price.


Gigi and Alphonse: Who are they really?

Gigi and Alphonse actually exist (as does "their" car), although very possibly with different names. Artist Dan Edwards came upon these little guys and their vehicle outside a bakery early one morning while barging with his wife and pals in Southern France. The dogs are waiting for their master, who's left his chaps to guard the car while he buys breakfast croissants. Tough job, but somebody's gotta do it!
