@Manwithcam: You're absolutely right. Bacon was referring to 'Triptych, May–June 1973' (also labelled one of the 'Black Triptychs') which portrays Dyer moments before his death.

@GoldenRatio2 I second that. He's actually referring to the triptych with George Dyer throwing up in a toilet. At least that's what it looks like to me. And you're right. The close-ups of the surfaces are to die for.

2:02 is perhaps a little misleading in terms of the image being shown and the quote/voice-over. I don't think Bacon was referring to that particular triptych of Dyer when he said that it's the nearest thing he'd ever done to a story. Anyway, this really is a brilliant set of videos - particularly the close up shots of the surface of the canvas.

01:42 to 02:00. This painting is quite poignant.
I wonder if Francis, ever looked up or was momentarily torn from what he was doing or watching, and heard the late George Dyer's key in the door.
I wonder what he might have thought about life's frugality if that happened.
