Francis Bacon

This etching and aquatint in colors on high-quality Arches paper depicts a stylized figure wearing a bowler hat, inspired by American President Woodrow Wilson, set against a high-contrast dark panel and a serene light gray background. The work forms part of the iconic Triptych 1986-1987, the remaining two panels of which are based on Leon Trotsky and Bacon's friend and muse, John Edwards. This impression is hand-signed in pencil by Francis Bacon at the lower right and numbered at the lower left (from a limited edition of 99 copies). The print is in excellent condition and is professionally presented in a sleek, modern black frame fitted with high-grade anti-reflective (museum) glass for an optimal, glare-free display.
