Francis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonné

Jet of Water (1979) is the second of Francis Bacon's late landscapes. From the mid-70s onwards, Bacon's aim, according to Martin Harrison, author of the stupendous new Francis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonné, was to pare his paintings "down to their essence—to convey, as he said in one of his frequently-quoted formulations, 'the sensation without the boredom of its conveyance.' Jet of Water is among the most impeccable and assured manifestations of 'abbreviation' in his paintings." Read more on artbook.com and in the Wall Street Journal.
