Like Marmite you either love or you hate the work of Vladimir Tretchikoff - me? I love it...

I love all his ladies - we've got a few of them in a group. I'm not too keen on his more surreal, still life paintings.

I love his work, lots of cheap prints from the 60s are turning up at antiques fairs lately, I'm waiting for one in perfect condition

We bought one in perfect condition on eBay about a year ago that arrived (thanks to Royal Mail) in pieces!

Royal Mail not taking care of artwork? Surely not!

The more 'fragile labels' you stick on a package the more laissez-faire they are!

If you've got a spare £30,000 burning a hole in your pocket you could bid on this Tretchikoff oil on canvas...
