Francois Bacon

Jean Baptiste Compagnie

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man's upper body. He is slightly turned to the right, with a neutral expression. He has wavy, shoulder-length hair, a full beard, prominent cheekbones, and a high forehead. He is wearing a high ruffed collar and an elaborately embroidered coat. The background is a simple oval shape within a rectangular frame. The text "FRANÇOIS BACON" is written below the image, and there are artist signatures along the bottom edge of the oval.
