Jack Vettriano Original

... With a change in subject matter to encompass a kind of film noir nostalgia, and a seeming fascination with semi-clad women in complicated underwear, a change of name to that of his Italian Grandfather, with an added ‘a’ presumably for prettiness, and a move to Edinburgh, the Jack Vettriano that is now so well known as creator of so many singularly identifiable Jack Vettriano Original Paintings, was born.

And there is something in this idiosyncratic mixing of dark nostalgia, sexually tense ambiguity, and glowing colour that has struck a chord with the British public, and meant that Jack Vettriano enjoys the position of consistently most popular living British artist. Jack Vettriano Original paintings sell at a very decent level too. On 21 April 2004 the Jack Vettriano original painting, and progenitor of a million reproductions, The Singing Butler sold at auction for £744,500.
