Francis Bacon at his Reece Mews studio. London 1980. It was removed in 1998 and relocated with all its contents at Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane.
In his Reece Mews studio, London, 1980, Francis Bacon sits calmly amidst the celebrated chaos of his creative process. A wide-angle lens captures the curving walls and a floor entirely obscured by a thick layer of papers, books, and spent paint tubes. Behind the artist, a large, smudged mirror hangs near a wall covered in tacked-on photographs. In 1998, the studio and all its contents were meticulously relocated to Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane.
