Etching and Aquatint in colors on Guarro paper. Signed, Dated and numbered. Seated Figure (1983) by Francis Bacon presents a contorted, almost spectral human form sitting before a stark black background and an angled mirror. Executed in etching and aquatint, the figure's pale, fleshy tones are disrupted by abstract smudges and distortions that emphasize Bacon’s signature themes of psychological tension and corporeal fragility. The mirrored reflection distorts the figure further, echoing Bacon’s interest in identity and perception. With its vacant space and visceral subject, the composition evokes isolation, confinement, and existential unease — key elements of Bacon’s postwar expressionist idiom.

What is new figuration?
Neo-Figurative Art is a collective term that refers to the revival of figurative art in America and Europe during the 1960s, following a period dominated by abstraction. Michel Ragon, a French art critic, argued that this resurgence of figuration occurred during a critical time of social and political upheaval in both regions.
