Francis Bacon in his Reece Mews home and studio in London, 1978. Wearing a paint-smeared apron over a turtleneck sweater, the artist gazes down at an open book of images. He holds a small, patterned cup, his mouth slightly open as if paused in speech or contemplation. The sleeve of his sweater is pushed up to reveal a watch, while dramatic lighting creates deep shadows and highlights the textures of his clothing.
