Francis Bacon: Phaidon Focus | 
pickA fascinating introduction to the life and art of Francis Bacon, placing his work in a historical as well as personal context. It‘s clear & concise but not simplistic. I loved the “Focus” sections that highlight key elements of his work & how every referenced work was pictured. I wld absolutely get another book from this Phaidon Focus series.
Billypar I don't know much about Bacon so this sounds like one I should check out. Also- that is quite a painting! 😮 I may have nightmares about it, lol. 12mo
Michael_Gee @Billypar You should! Though fair warning there‘s plenty more disturbing paintings in there…😱 12mo
