The article aims to investigate Francis Bacon’s works in the broader cultural and philosophical context. Tracking down the influence of other artists on Bacon’s art and the symbols visible in his paintings leads to valid conclusions related to the problems of the artists of the twentieth century. These are: human loneliness, abandonment by the Creator, reduction of human being to mere bodies and the question of the existence and location of an immortal soul.
