Francis Bacon


 Francis Bacon
 
 
           Francis Bacon born in October 28, 1909, in Georgian Dublin. He was an Irish-born British figurative painter known for his bold, he is also a graphic and emotionally raw imagery Bacon's painterly. When I saw some of his painting, I got completely surprised,  because he try to express some parts of his life through his arts work, and that is the reasons of his arts looks like uncompleted work , because he tried to highlight his personal issues in some of his art painting  especially philosophically part which appeared also in some of his arts painting, also he meant to have a lack of visibility in some of them such as figures creation, personal friends or partners or may be something that he try to express, but there is something unknown in his art painting, for example, in one of his arts painting he represent a man looks like a ghost , unknown name, scary , dead , it’s abuses of the human face. It’s interesting to follow his life steps in order to find out the reasons behind that painting.
