Jack Vettriano, the self-taught Scottish painter best known for the work "The Singing Butler", has died aged 73, his publicist said on Monday. Vettriano was found dead at his apartment in the southern French city of Nice on Saturday.

Critics largely rejected his work, but when it was last sold in 2004, “The Singing Butler” was the most valuable piece of art to ever emerge from Scotland.

His 1992 painting “The Singing Butler” — featuring a couple in evening dress dancing on a storm-swept beach as their butler and maid proffered umbrellas — became a best-selling image in Britain.

Forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden shared his theory on the "unusual" circumstances that may have led to the deaths of Gene Hackman, his wife Betsy Arakawa and their dog. Mackenzie Fly moved from the US to Berlin because she loved the city but had a rough time getting a long-term visa and almost gave up.
