Francis Bacon considérait la gravure comme un prolongement de sa peinture ; il recourait à l’eau-forte et à l’aquatinte pour explorer la figure humaine, le geste et la tension spatiale. Ses gravures montrent des formes contorsionnées et isolées se détachant sur des arrière-plans dépouillés, souvent ambigus, capturant ainsi le caractère dramatique et l’immédiateté de son travail sur papier. À travers des états répétés et des expérimentations sur la ligne, le ton et la texture, les gravures de Bacon révèlent son approche méthodique de ce médium. Tout au long de sa carrière, les estampes de Bacon sont devenues un terrain d’expérimentation essentiel pour tester des idées, affiner la composition et repousser les limites expressives de la gravure.
