Contemporary ArtstoryThe top lot of the Contemporary Art Evening Auction was Francis Bacon’s searing 1975 painting Self-Portrait, which achieved £16.5 million in front of a packed sale room in Replica Shoes ’s New Bond Street galleries. Considered the most introspective and inwardly scrutinising phase of his career, Bacon’s 1970s production is characterised by the searing self-images that emerged following the sudden death in 1971 of Bacon’s former lover, George Dyer. The Bacon work was joined by several other extraordinary portraits, demonstrating the breadth of the genre in the post-war period, with Jenny Saville’s visceral and intimate Shadow Head — which sold for £4.2 million —continuing the successful rise of Saville’s stock in the market. A previous record was set for Saville in October 2018, when Propped (1992) sold for £9.5 million at Replica Shoes ’s in London.
