Francis Bacon at his Reece Mews kitchen. London 1978.

Francis Bacon stands in his modest kitchen at Reece Mews, London, in 1978. Wearing a light-colored turtleneck sweater, he holds a small, patterned teacup and looks directly at the camera with a neutral, slightly weary expression. His left arm, adorned with a wide bracelet, rests on a cluttered wooden countertop amid everyday items: a small teapot, a box of spaghetti, and a can labeled "Marvel." The setting is informal and lived-in, capturing a candid, intimate moment.
