Francis Bacon looks towards the viewer from his Reece Mews studio in London, 1980. The artist wears a dark turtleneck sweater under a tan, button-up jacket. To his right is the canvas 'Carcass of Meat and Bird of Prey', featuring a distorted, biomorphic figure with what appears to be an exposed ribcage. The form is rendered in a palette of white, grey, purple, and fleshy pink tones, set within a spatial enclosure suggested by thin black lines.
