Francis Bacon at his studio in Paris, rue de Birague, 1979.
Artist Francis Bacon confronts the viewer with a direct, intense gaze in this candid, black and white portrait, taken at his studio on the rue de Birague in Paris in 1979. Dressed in a textured, light-gray turtleneck sweater, his expression is serious, his mouth slightly agape. Seated at a table with a white cup just visible, he is framed against a softly blurred background where an easel hints at his profession. The image is characterized by a shallow depth of field and noticeable film grain.
