A photographic portrait of Prince Andrew was damaged at Chelsea Arts Club after being included in a charity auction.
The image, shot in 2000, fetched £210 at auction, but was torn down from the wall and taken by a club member who protested its inclusion in the event.
One club member said the incident caused “a dreadful ruckus”.
“It’s a wonderful portrait, but always seemed an odd lot for a charity auction... Lots of us thought that it shouldn’t have been included."
