Francis Bacon at his London studio in 1980. It was removed in 1998 and relocated with all its contents at Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane.
Francis Bacon stands with an intense expression amidst the creative chaos of his London studio in 1980. Wearing a dark turtleneck and light-colored jacket, he rests a hand on a large canvas. The floor is obscured by a disarray of books, papers, and paint-smeared rags, while a nearby table is crowded with jars of brushes. A large, speckled mirror on the curved wall reflects the photographer's silhouette. In 1998, the entire studio and its contents were relocated to the Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane.
