I greatly admire Francis Bacon artwork and enjoyed reading the books about his own turbulent private life or not so private as we know! I was and still am inspired by his talent as an artist.

Francis Bacon was an Irish-born British expressionist painter. His subjects were mainly abstract figures and portraits of friends, that he painted with bold and creative brush-strokes often in triptychs. He also focused his interest in other themes like the crucifixion or Papal figures.

I have taken these photos in Spitalfields Market, one of London’s most historic and vibrant places to visit. I have been there many times and I love it.

Firmly established as the ‘must visit’ London attraction for Londoners and tourists alike, Old Spitalfields market offers a fusion of Victorian splendor and contemporary architecture.
