The British painter Francis Bacon (1909-1992) is famed for his
idiosyncratic mode of depicting the human figure. Thirty years
after his death, his working methods remain underexplored. New
research on the Francis Bacon Studio Archive at Hugh Lane Gallery,
Dublin, sheds light on the genesis of his works, namely the
photographic source material he collected in his studios, on which
he consistently based his paintings. The book brings together the
artist's pictorial springboards for the first time, delineating and
interpreting recurring patterns and methods in his preparatory work
and adoption of photographic material. In addition, it correctly
locates 'chance' as a driving force in Bacon's working method and
qualifies the significance of photography for the painter.
