Art Notes

All around the world, Paris is known as the “City of Love.” Jazz music floats in the night air serenading the city and all who call Paris home. The moonlight shines down brightly, and it is here where the love story for Duchess and Thomas O’Malley continues. Marie, the hopeless romantic, joins her brothers, Berlioz and Toulouse, quietly watching the night play out on the windowsill.

The Aristocats – Love Under the Moon by Thomas Kinkade Studios® captures the magic of Paris and celebrates the romantic story of two beloved Disney characters.
