Francis Bacon at his studio (7, Reece Mews, London SW7) 1979.

Francis Bacon in his London studio at 7 Reece Mews, 1979. The artist, dressed in a dark turtleneck, stands behind a bentwood chair and looks directly towards the camera with an intense, wide-eyed expression. A large mirror dominates the background, creating a complex composition by reflecting the back of Bacon's head and glimpses of his intimate workspace—a cabinet, books, and an armchair. A single bare lightbulb hangs from the ceiling, its light also captured in the glass of the complex, grainy image.
