Bat ears standing to attention, a crinkled muzzle and a tailored tuxedo: this French Bulldog holds its pose with a seriousness that commands respect and a grin in equal measure. The whole charm of the illustration lies in that blend of stiff dignity and irresistible little face, worthy of a Belle Époque notable sitting for posterity. The finish is polished, almost painterly, so it reads like a genuine master's portrait on the wall.

The portrait joins our series of dogs in evening dress, where each breed swaps its basket for the splendour of a bourgeois drawing room. Hung in a living room, a hallway or above a dresser, it adds the streak of eccentricity that makes a room memorable and gets visitors smiling well before they have worked out why. Bulldog lovers and fans of witty decor will unearth it in our Dog Posters collection.

A witty gift for a French Bulldog owner who happily owns their taste for offbeat refinement and enjoys a good dose of self-mockery.
