Francis Bacon is a British modernist painter known for his raw, visceral depictions of the human form, blending expressionism, surrealism, and psychological intensity. His iconic works, including screaming popes, contorted figures, and haunting triptychs, explore themes of violence, existentialism, and the fragility of human existence. With a signature technique of smeared brushstrokes, bold contrasts, and dark, atmospheric backgrounds, Bacon redefined 20th-century portraiture. With a lasting impact on contemporary art and record-breaking auction results, his paintings, drawings, and rare prints remain among the most sought-after in the art market.
