Meaning & Analysis

The piece depicts a human torso with truncated legs cut off at the knee, sitting cross-legged on a platform. The body evokes visual features of sculpture from the classical Roman period in which fragmented bodies often expressed intense anxiety. The figure lacks detail and is rendered life-like only by shades of flesh tones. Like many of Bacon’s figures, the body rests upon a geometrical structure that expresses a feeling of isolation. A piece of paper rests on the leg of the body inscribed with illegible writing and a large red arrow pointing to the figure.

As is referenced in the title, Bacon often used the French Neo-Classical artist, Ingres, as an inspiration for his works. Classical themes such as Greek mythology, of which Ingres had made paintings of, also influenced Bacon in works such as Oedipus and The Sphinx (1984). He had a lifelong fascination with the artist and became particularly interested in his use of geometrical shapes and archaism in an attempt to produce ideal forms of the human figure.

Bacon encases the flesh-toned body in an interior of fiery orange hues. Each geometrical shape is given a slightly altered tone of red, orange or brown to illuminate the body in the centre. Such abrasive tones further express discomfort and alarming anxiety.
