Francis Bacon’s ‘Man at a Washbasin’ is a highlight of our Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Auction in London, on view from 21–25 June.⠀
.⠀
The man depicted is Peter Lacy, Bacon’s lover at the time. During this period, Bacon’s art was influenced by the nudes of Degas, the photography of Muybridge and sculptures of Michelangelo, bringing them together in dark, mysterious paintings.⠀
.⠀
These works are now considered the most impressive achievements of Bacon’s early career.⠀
