Jack Vettriano – The People's Painter Lovers, Strangers and StoriesA Major Print Retrospective 1996 – 2009Art Portfolio of Romsey celebrates the work of one of Britain's most popular living artists, ‘The People's Painter', Jack Vettriano. The UK's largest ever retrospective of Vettriano's prints features an exceptional collection of five new signed limited editions taken from his latest series of paintings, three of which are based on a French Riviera theme. There will be many rare editions for sale including the hugely popular Along Came a Spider. Vettriano's discovery of painting has led him to become one of the most popular artists of our time, and an inspirational figure to many. His figurative oil paintings present a nostalgic commentary, often with an air of romance and sensuality that has an almost universal appeal. His figures describe an intense state of affairs, creating a narrative which is left for the viewer to ponder.
