FRANCIS BACON HC GN AUG242187 widely read stories of ourTold for the first time in graphic novel form, the story of Francis Bacon\'s life is as complex, colorful, and highly charged as his paintings. Drawn in shades of mauve, red, yellow, and blue that distinguished his palette, these illustrations weave together a troubling but compassionate narrative, one that draws on the tragic events of Bacon\'s childhood and youth, as well as reflecting the profoundly passionate yearnings of the artist he became.
