Francis Bacon and John Edwards at the Reece Mews studio in London 1980.
Francis Bacon and his companion John Edwards are pictured at Bacon's famously cluttered Reece Mews studio in London, 1980. Bacon, in a tan jacket and dark turtleneck, holds a neutral expression beside a faintly smiling Edwards. Behind them, a large canvas depicting a biomorphic figure rests on an easel. The working studio is filled with supplies, leaning canvases, and a door to the right that, covered in thick daubs of paint, serves as a makeshift palette.
Artworks:
- "Carcass of Meat with Bird of Prey", 1980, Harrison 80–06 (not yet finished).
