Francis Bacon, Seated Figure, etching and aquatint; contorted figure on pedestal with neutral background, conveying isolation and tension.

Image size: 65.2 X 48.6 cm - Sheet size: 89.5 X 62.5 cm // Francis Bacon’s Seated Figure (1987) is an etching and aquatint that reflects his distinctively raw and visceral approach to the human form. This limited edition print portrays a solitary, contorted figure sitting on a geometric pedestal against a stark, neutral background. Bacon's unsettling depiction captures the vulnerability and tension in the human body, emphasizing distorted limbs and elongated shadows. The figure’s posture, along with the muted tones, evokes themes of isolation and existential angst. Bacon’s exploration of human suffering and the fragile nature of existence is palpable in this composition, making it a powerful example of his ability to evoke emotion through abstraction and distortion.

What is Surrealism?

Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
