Francis Bacon at his Reece Mews kitchen. London 1978.

Francis Bacon glances toward the camera with a surprised expression in his small, cluttered kitchen at Reece Mews, London, in 1978. Dressed in a light-colored knit turtleneck, his hand rests on an old-fashioned gas stove, its oven door ajar. The intimate setting is filled with everyday items—pots, a kettle, and papers pinned to the wooden walls—capturing an informal moment within the artist's famously chaotic studio.
