The Times suggested on 22 April 2006: "Of the country's two major annual portrait exhibitions, the BP Portrait Awards at the National Portrait Gallery in June might be better known, but the one at the Royal Society is surely the more glittering, as it is to the society that many of the country's powerful institutions go to commission portraits of their leaders."

Regarding "The Purple Flower" Julian wrote: "Emma and I fought our way through the crush to find Nigel's painting, which was absolutely ravishing. Quite small and meticulously detailed, it was
an exquisite study of a woman's head, with a distinctive purple
flower, really marvellous and rather haunting." The Purple Flower, 8"x15" , Oil on Panel

Art lover? Take your pick from original works by Damian Hirst, Tracey Emin, Patrick Lichfield, Wolfgang Tillmans, Mario Testino and Nigel Cox.
For pure fun-seekers there's been pole dancing and flying trapeze lessons, nude portrait commissions, and the chance to fritter away the services of your own personal butler for the day.
Over the last 10 years we have seen some fabulous and unique lots come under the hammer at the Lighthouse Gala Auction. Its reputation as an outrageously entertaining event has secured its place as a fixture in the calendars of the good and the glamorous. The auction has raised nearly £2 million for our services for people living with, and affected by, HIV and AIDS.
