Francis Bacon ... master in atrocity!

 He was a renowned Irish-born British painter who gained significant recognition for his haunting and often disturbing figurative works.

Bacon's paintings often featured distorted and fragmented figures, often isolated in confined spaces. His work is known for its raw emotional intensity and its exploration of themes such as mortality, isolation, and the human condition.

Bacon drew inspiration from a variety of sources, including poetry, drama, paintings by other artists, and photographs. His works often conveyed a sense of anguish, aggression, and violence, reflecting the turbulent times he lived in.
