Synopsis
This text offers a collection of paintings by the neo-realist Jack Vettriano. The editor has also woven an anthology of old and new writing around the the painter's images, complementing them, matching their moods, and extending the lives of the characters beyond their frozen moments on canvas. Vettriano's images are real in the sense that he portrays recognizable people in believable situations. They are tales without text, storyboards about love and lust, possession and longing, pursuit and conquest.

About the Author
Jack Vettriano is entirely self-taught. A Scotsman of Italian descent, he left school at sixteen to become a mining engineer working down the Fife coalfields. For his twenty-first birthday a girlfriend gave him a set of watercolour paints and from then on, he spent much of his spare time teaching himself to paint. His first solo exhibition in Edinburgh was a sell-out and since then he has had solo exhibitions in London, Hong Kong and New York. Over the last twenty years, interest in Vettriano's work has grown consistently. Vettriano's best known painting, The Singing Butler, was sold at Sotheby's for close to GBP750,000. He was awarded an OBE for Services to the Visual Arts. In 2013, a major twenty year Retrospective exhibition of Vettriano's work was staged at Kelvingrove art Gallery and Musuem in Glasgow. He lives in Edinburgh.
