This gift-sized book focuses on Vettriano's women and the mysterious, seductive, beautiful, languid, passionate and powerful.

Inspired by his many muses, Vettriano's paintings have frequently focused on women and they have formed the subject of some of his most popular and significant paintings, including the 'Singing Butler' and 'Mad Dogs'. Whether relaxing on a beach, reclining in a bar or dancing through the night, this book celebrates Jack's vision of women and their importance in his work.

I have always sought the company of women over men. This is not a purely sexual endeavour; as companions, they possess a range of qualities that far outweigh those of mere man.

In choosing the paintings for 'Women In Love', I have purposely avoided my femme fatales and their manipulative behaviour. I have chosen those paintings which I think best illustrate my definition of love and contain the aspects of women that draw me in. Jack Vettriano
