Francis Bacon at his studio in Paris, rue de Birague, 1979.

In his studio on the rue de Birague, Paris, artist Francis Bacon is captured mid-conversation on the telephone in 1979. Leaning against a wall in the narrow room, his expression is serious and concentrated. He wears a checkered button-down shirt, the scene starkly lit by a single bare lightbulb. To his left, a door is secured with a conspicuous, surface-mounted vertical bar locking mechanism.
