"Figure with meat", Francis Bacon

In the background are two large, hanging meat carcasses from the ceiling. They are shown at this angle, as if Papa were an angel, and the two pieces of meat are wings behind his back. Bacon probably wanted to show that it is only one step from a holy man to a bloodsucker and cruel monster. 1954
