Francis Bacon at his Reece Mews home. London 1980.

The artist Francis Bacon at his Reece Mews home in London, 1980. With slicked-back gray hair and intense blue eyes, he looks directly toward the camera, his mouth slightly open as if in mid-sentence. He is dressed in a dark turtleneck under a light brown jacket. The muted, informal interior features caned wooden chairs, a dark tufted sofa, and a complex, transparent kinetic sculpture. A single bare lightbulb hanging from a cord contributes to the stark, lived-in atmosphere of the space.
