Francis Bacon at his house (7, Reece Mews, London SW7). 1978.

Francis Bacon sits in his home at 7 Reece Mews, London, in 1978. With tousled, graying hair and his head tilted to one side, he looks directly toward the viewer with an intense, questioning gaze. He is dressed in a dark, open jacket over a mock turtleneck and patterned trousers, holding a small booklet in his lap. In this grainy, high-contrast photograph, side lighting casts the background into deep shadow, creating an intimate and candid portrait.
