Figure with Meat
Figure with Meat is a 1954 painting by the Irish-born artist Francis Bacon. The figure is based on Pope Innocent X's depiction by Diego Velázquez in Portrait of Innocent X (c. 1650); in Bacon's painting the Pope is shown as a gruesome figure and placed between two bisected halves of a cow. The carcass is likely derived from Rembrandt's Slaughtered Ox (1655). Bacon had previously depicted cow carcasses in Painting 1946. Figure with Meat is in the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.
