100 Rs
Francis Bacon (1909 – 1992) was an Irish-born British figurative painter known for his raw, unsettling imagery.
Focusing on the human form, his subjects included crucifixions, portraits of popes, self-portraits, and portraits of close friends, with abstracted figures sometimes isolated in geometrical structures. He built up a reputation as one of the giants of contemporary art with his unique style.
Bacon's reputation has grown steadily, and his work is among the most acclaimed, expensive and sought-after on the art market.

About Lying Figure In Mirror – Francis Bacon Abstract Expressionist Painting
A male figure is reflected in a mirror framed by two white lines, which also depicts part of the circular interior—an arena or a stage for erotic performances—in which it is placed. The geometric and chromatic reduction of the floor, walls and roller blinds forms a sharp contrast with the sensual and elastic treatment of the deformed headless presence that dominates the composition, the plastic quality of which matches the interest that sculpture held for Bacon at the time (he kept a picture of Michelangelo’s Day from the Medici Chapel in his studio). Far from making the room larger, the mirror—a common feature in his oeuvre since the late sixties—stresses the idea of confinement and transforms the viewer into a voyeur of his own distorted reality.
