Product description
There is a raw, vibrating tension held within the burnt orange field of this print. The central form, a pale and contorted creature with a bandaged face and exposed, gnashing teeth, perches precariously atop a spindly wooden structure. This composition captures the primal scream of the mid-20th century, utilizing heavy brushwork and a stark, clinical background to isolate the figure in a state of eternal discomfort.
About Francis Bacon
Francis Bacon (1909–1992) was an Irish-born British painter known for raw, distorted figures. Bacon often placed his subjects inside cage-like frames against flat, intense backgrounds. Expressionist art uses distorted forms and intense colour to show inner feeling.
