Francis Bacon is part of triptych with self-portraits at his Reece Mews studio in London 1980.

In his Reece Mews studio in London in 1980, artist Francis Bacon gazes directly at the viewer. Wearing a light gray suit jacket over a navy cardigan and a light blue scarf, he stands beside an easel holding a triptych of his self-portraits. Two panels contain dark, distorted faces, while the rightmost is empty. The well-used studio reveals his working process, with stacked canvases and a door functioning as a large, paint-daubed palette.
