EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the enigmatic figure of Francis Bacon, a prominent male philosopher and author from the 17th century. Painted by Paul van Somer and reproduced in lithograph form by Ken Welsh, this image captures the essence of Bacon's intellectual prowess and multifaceted career. Bacon, also known as Viscount St Albans, was not only an esteemed philosopher but also an influential lawyer, writer, and Member of Parliament. His contributions to science and philosophy were groundbreaking during his time and continue to shape our understanding today. With a penetrating gaze that seems to delve into the depths of knowledge itself, Bacon exudes an aura of wisdom and intellect. The artist has masterfully captured every intricate detail in this portrait - from the fine lines etched on Bacon's face to his regal attire befitting his status as an Earl. The composition is both elegant and commanding, emphasizing Bacon's authority as a thinker who challenged conventional beliefs. Displayed against a neutral background, this print allows us to focus solely on Bacon himself - his piercing eyes seem to hold secrets waiting to be unraveled.
