In Camera - Francis Bacon by Martin Harrison

With the aid of over 250 source images and documents, this text reveals how photographs, film, mass-media imagery and other sources informed Bacon's painting and, in particular, how 'lens-based images' helped to trigger the most significant turning point in his stylistic development.
'An indispensable work of reference for anyone wishing to follow the protracted dialogue that Bacon conducted with photography – and through photography with the art of the past,his own work and real life' - Art Newspaper
'Scrupulous and well-balanced…crammed with information and illuminating speculation' - Literary Review
'Bacon's working documents [are] painstakingly retrieved and analysed by Martin Harrison… an opulent, paradoxically beautiful book' - Observer
'A revelation' - Daily Telegraph
Martin Harrison is one of the foremost scholars of Francis Bacon, and the editor of Francis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonné.
