Francis Bacon, mutilated canvas, oil sketch for a portrait, 14" x 12", on a dark ground, the centre having been crudely cut out leaving only the shoulders and forehead and possibly part of one ear. From the hairline it is tempting to suggest that this was possibly a portrait of George Dyer, but no firm attribution could be made. (See general note on lot 2034 above)
