British artist Francis Bacon (1909-1992), one of the foremost artists of the twentieth century, is known for his expressive figurative paintings. Perhaps Bacon's most famous image - the so-called 'screaming pope' in Study after Velázquez's Portrait of Pope Innocent X (1953) - became the touchstone for the longest series of paintings in his career, the Papal Portraits of 1953.In 1953 'haunted and obsessed by the image...by its perfection,' Bacon sought to reinvent Velázquez's seventeenth-century Portrait of Pope Innocent X (1650) in the paintings that are the focus of this book. Francis Bacon replaced the grand, official state portrait with an intimate, spontaneous 'candid camera' glimpse behind the well-ordered exterior. While the Spanish master Velázquez portayed the pope ex cathedra, Bacon captured him in camera, as if behind a closed door or through a one-way mirror.This series of eight papal portraits, painted during a period of just a few weeks in the summer of 1953, was brought together for the first time by noted Bacon scholar Hugh M. Davies for a 1999 exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego, along with several other works from the same period, including Sphinx I and two recently found Study after Velázquez paintings from 1950. This book includes a new essay by Davies, discussing the artist's influences and sources of imagery for the series, and a previously unpublished interview that Davies conducted with Bacon in 1973.

Essay from the year 2002 in the subject Art - Installation / Action/Performance Art / Modern Art, grade: 75/100 (A), University of Edinburgh (College of Humanities and Social Sciences; School of Arts, Culture and Environment), language: English, abstract: Critics usually agree that seeing a painting by Francis Bacon (1909 - 1992) is, to a greater or lesser degree, an aesthetically painful experience. While this might be said of many works of art created in the 20th century, in the case of Bacon, this painfulness can surely be understood in a very specific sense. In the course of this essay, I shall focus on one of Bacon's earlier works, his 1953 painting "Study after Velázquez's Portrait of Pope Innocent X." I will try to analyze in which way the picture achieves its disturbing effect and in how far this effect lies at the very center of the 'meaning' of Bacon's painting.

00This book was published on the occasion of Francis Bacon: The First Pope at Gagosian, Davies Street, London. The exhibition presented Bacon?s painting ?Landscape with Pope/Dictator? (c. 1946) for the first time publicly. The painting is the artist?s first treatment of the papal image, a subject that would preoccupy him on and off for at least two decades. ?Landscape with Pope/Dictator? entered a private collection in 1967 and was only rediscovered during the compilation of Bacon?s catalogue raisonné by Martin Harrison, which was published in 2016.00In addition to detailed reproductions of the painting, the publication features new essays by Richard Calvocoressi and Michael Cary. Calvocoressi provides historical context and explores the themes and sources for the picture, while Cary looks at how Bacon?s work influenced and resonated with contemporary artists and their work, from Andy Warhol to Damien Hirst.00It also includes an extract of a text by Dawn Ades, published in the catalogue accompanying Bacon?s 1985 retrospective at the Tate Gallery in London, which analyzes animalistic and human behaviors and examines Bacon?s long-standing fascination with the wide-open mouth that can be seen in ?Landscape with Pope/Dictator.?00Exhibition: Gagosian Gallery, Davies Street, London, UK (15.03.-23.04.2022).

This exhibition catalogue is not a retrospective but rather an examination for the first time of the artist's work within a network of relationships and influences from the Old Masters to the artists of the twentieth century. The eminent English painter Francis Bacon (19091992) is known for his brutal, haunting and grotesque portraits of man and beast. In this eyeopening study Bacon stands besides artists like Velazquez, Rembrandt, Titian, Ingres, Degas, Schiele, and Van Gogh - his real sources. To support this thesis, the text draws connections between Bacon and his predecessors according to themes: Bacon's papal portraits, the Motif of the Scream, Bacon and Surrealism, Mirrors and Reflections, the Cage Motif. This sumptuously illustrated book offers a firsttime study of a modernist's work in relation to the masterpieces of art history. Exhibition schedule: Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna October 15, 2003 - January 18, 2004 Fondation Beyeler, Basel, February 8, 2004 - June 20, 2004
