Francis Bacon at his Reece Mews kitchen. London 1978.

Francis Bacon stands in his small, cluttered kitchen at Reece Mews, London, in 1978. Wearing a grey turtleneck sweater, he looks directly at the camera with his arm resting on a countertop crowded with everyday items. The room, with its horizontal wooden paneling, is filled with saucepans, food packaging, and papers, creating a portrait of lived-in disorder. Pinned to the wall above the counter is a small, curled photograph of a person in profile.
