Description

Featuring more than 50 works from the 1940s onwards, this exhibition explores Francis Bacon’s deep connection to portraiture and how he challenged traditional definitions of the genre.

Works from private and public collections will showcase Bacon’s life story, from his responses to portraiture by earlier artists to large-scale paintings memorialising lost lovers. Accompanied by the artist’s self-portraits, sitters include Lucian Freud, Isabel Rawsthorne, and lovers Peter Lacy and George Dyer.

The exhibition will open on Thursday 10th October and run until Sunday 19th January. The winner of the prize should contact the Gallery at this email address (info@npg.org.uk) to reserve tickets for their chosen date.
