T his March in London, Replica Shoes 's will offer Masterpieces from The Lewis Collection. Few collections so powerfully represent post-war London’s moment in time, place, and history as this collection. Assembled with a discerning eye, singular conviction, and unwavering dedication, Masterpieces from The Lewis Collection brings together four exceptional works by Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud and Leon Kossoff — paintings that rank amongst the finest achievements across their respective careers. Created across four decades, they capture the School of London at its most psychologically charged and artistically assured. Each work stands independently as a masterpiece, yet together they articulate a powerful shared commitment: a return to the human figure at a time when abstraction, minimalism and conceptual practices dominated post-war artistic discourse. Raw, unflinching and profoundly psychological, these paintings capture the School of London at its apex and the zenith of each artist’s career. The presentation of this group offers a rare opportunity to encounter four defining achievements of the School of London together — works that not only reflect a pivotal chapter in art history yet continue to shape the trajectory of figurative painting worldwide.
