Seems more realistic to the subject like that.

My dumb ass: How the fuck did Francis Bacon paint a version of this painting from 1650 if he died in 1626?

Oh, not that Francis Bacon.

Haha, right. Francis Bacon painted the metal one in 1953.

Not this Francis Bacon: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Bacon that died in 1626,

but this one: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Bacon_(artist)

It was based on a painting by Valazquez in 1650.

This was used as the cover art for Ulver’s Sic Transit Gloria Mundi EP (2017). It has a beautiful cover of The Power Of Love, originally by Frankie gos to Hollywood.

His Painting 1946 is one of my favorites, him and Goya captured this haunted feel so well
