About Jack Vettriano
The Scottish painter Jack Vettriano is Britain's most popular and sought-after contemporary painter. Rich and famous people are waiting to purchase one of his latest works. His collectors include international celebrities like Jack Nicholson. At the same time as David Beckham, Vettriano received the Order of the British Empire from the Queen at Buckingham Palace.
Vettriano was born in 1951. In 1988, he celebrated his breakthrough when he showed his paintings in the annual exhibition of the Royal Scottish Academy. The paintings were sold out after the first day. In the following years, his painting style matured, and collectors' interest grew steadily. In 2004, his most famous painting to date, "The Singing Butler", was auctioned for over 1,000,000 euros. His works can be seen at numerous exhibitions in Europe, Africa and Asia.
Jack Vettriano paints scenes featuring one or even several people. They almost look like stills from films and always tell a little story. His trademark is a very realistic painting style whose aesthetics are reminiscent of the 1920s and 1930s. Vettriano succeeds in creating a lively atmosphere in his paintings, which still leaves a lot of space for the viewer's imagination.
Depiction of typical scenes from daily life in painting, with distinctions between rural, bourgeois, and courtly genres.
The genre reached its peak and immense popularity in Dutch paintings of the 17th century. In the 18th century, especially in France, the courtly and gallant painting became prominent, while in Germany, a more bourgeois character developed.
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, to spray".
The Giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format print produced with an inkjet printer using special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The inks are lightfast, meaning they are resistant to harmful UV light. They provide a high level of nuance, contrast, and saturation.
The Giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade paper and watercolour paper as well as silk.
