In 2004, 'The Singing Butler' fetched £745,000 or roughly, when it was auctioned off to a private collector by Sotheby's. The painter, who had changed his name to Jack Vettriano found to his amazement, that his The Singing Butler was the best selling print in the UK. It still is. You can buy it as prints or on mugs or even as an embroidery pattern.

The lady in red, Orla Brady, who is famous as an actress, 'enjoyed' another spurt of fame when she was identified as the model in the painting. She is also the maid on the left.

There's another version of the painting called Dancer in Emerald in which Ola's dress is green.
