Francis Bacon's Reece Mews studio. London 1980. It was removed in 1998 and relocated with all its contents at Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane.
Francis Bacon’s intensely cluttered studio at Reece Mews, London, photographed in 1980. The room is filled from floor to ceiling with the detritus of art creation, its floor barely visible beneath piles of crumpled paper, discarded rags, and dried paint scrapings. A large, circular painting leans against one wall, and a long workbench is crowded with jars and cans stuffed with paintbrushes. In 1998, the studio and all its contents were removed and permanently installed at Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane.
Artworks:
- "Metropolitan Triptych 1974-77" (a version with a figure in the foreground), 1980? (similar Sabatier 4)
- "Triptych August 1972" (Sabatier 23)
