Christie's FRANCIS BACON SEATED FIGURE 1960 1st Ed
About the Item
Christie's Francis Bacon / FRANCIS BACON SEATED FIGURE 1960. Christies, NY. 1st Edition Paperback. The work, entitled Seated Figure (Red Cardinal), is a fantastic representation of Bacon's papal series, which originates from his obsession with Diego Velazquez's Portrait of Pope Innocent X, a 1650 work by the Spanish golden age painter. Francis Bacon’s Seated Figure (1960) sold for $44.9 million ($40 million hammer) just above its low estimate of $40 million, and just met the minimum on a single bid from contemporary department head Brett Gorvy who was bidding for a client on the phone. Tonight’s consignor had shelled out $2.5 million (£1.5 million) when he or she bought it at Christie’s London in December 1996 (then it was estimated to sell for $2.4 million).
