    Francis Bacon In The 1950s By Michael Peppiatt

    Charta

    From the screaming heads and snarling chimpanzees of the late 1940s to the anonymous figures trapped in tortured isolation some ten years later, during one crucial decade British artist Francis Bacon created many of the most central and memorable images of his entire career. The artist enters the decade of the 1950s in search of himself and his true subject; he finishes ten years later having completed some of his great masterpieces and having acquired technical mastery over one of the most disturbing and revealing visions of the 20th century.


    This book brings both Bacon the man and Bacon the painter vividly to life, focusing for the first time on this key period in his development.
