We are moving and selling all of our Artwork. This was in our attic and it is like "Brand New"About the Painting: Love seems to shield a couple from a raging storm in “The Singing Butler” by Jack Vettriano. One of the world’s most sought-after artworks, it was auctioned for a record $1.3 million at Scotland Sotheby’s in 2004. Vettriano, a tireless, self-taught painter, is one of England’s most popular artists A little summary about the Artist: The popularity of Britain’s self-taught Jack Vettriano earned him the nickname “The People’s Painter.” Originally from a Scottish town where he planned to work as an engineer, Vettriano fell in love with art. In creating his art, he listens to music that makes him feel uncomfortable to create a mood that fuels his edgy, mysterious creations. Vettriano’s sales broke a record at Scotland Sotheby’s, and he has outsold Dali, Van Gogh and Monet. Vettriano is acknowledged to be the UK's most popular artist. His prints sell more than those by old masters such as Monet and Van Gogh, and his distinctive paintings are often reproduced on posters and postcards. However, he has long felt snubbed by the arts establishment and Britain's leading art galleries have never displayed his work.
The most famous painting by Scottish artist Jack Vettriano has smashed all expectations, selling for £744,800 at auction. The Singing Butler had been expected to fetch up to £200,000 at Sotheby's spring sale.
The most popular art print in the UK, the artwork sold for £90,000 when it was last auctioned in August. It was one of 14 works by the Fife-born artist at the sale at Hopetoun House in West Lothian.
