Francis Bacon

Triptych (After the Left Panel of Triptych, 1971, In Memory of George Dyer)

A haunting and visceral composition characteristic of Bacon's unflinching exploration of the human condition, this offset lithograph presents a distorted, contorted figure rendered in his signature raw and psychological style. The work revisits imagery from his earlier triptych created in memory of his late companion George Dyer, channeling themes of grief, isolation, and existential anguish through twisted, flesh-like forms set against stark, claustrophobic spatial environments. Printed in colors on wove paper with full margins, the lithograph retains the unsettling emotional intensity that defines Bacon's most deeply personal works.
