弗朗西斯·培根是现代艺术界的标志性人物之一，这位画家改变了我们看待和感受人体的方式。乔纳森·利特尔的三篇散文呼应了培根著名的三联画，探讨了这位艺术家笔下扭曲的人物与肖像、尖叫的教皇与猿猴、大块的牛肉以及雨伞等元素。在《普拉多美术馆的一天》中，利特尔结合对培根影响深远的两位艺术家——委拉斯凯兹和戈雅的作品，对培根的画作进行了分析。在《弗朗西斯·培根的语法》中，培根在其恋人乔治·戴尔1971年自杀前后为他创作的肖像，成为解读培根所画人物之间隐藏关联的关键。随后，利特尔在《真实的形象》中，先回顾了圣像画和摄影的历史，之后再回到培根的作品，对艺术中“真实”的真正含义提出了质疑。乔纳森·利特尔对这位20世纪重要艺术家作品的诠释，兼具学识与浓厚的个人色彩，力求揭示弗朗西斯·培根那充满痛苦的艺术的内在脉络。乔纳森·利特尔通常用法语写作。《三联画》是他用英语创作的作品，此次是该作品首次以英文出版。

Francis Bacon was one of the iconic figures of modern art, a painter who transformed the way we see and experience the human body. Mirroring Bacon's famous triptychs, Jonathan Littell's three essays engage with the artist's contorted figures and portraits, his screaming popes and apes, his flanks of beef and his umbrellas. In 'A Day at the Prado', Littell analyses Bacon's painting in light of Velazquez and Goya - two artists who deeply influenced him. In 'The Grammar of Francis Bacon', the artist's portraits of his lover George Dyer before and after his suicide in 1971 provide a key to the hidden correspondences between the figures he painted. Littell then, in 'The True Image', looks at the history of icon painting and photography before returning to Bacon, questioning the very meaning of truth in art. Erudite and deeply personal, Jonathan Littell's exegesis on the work of a major twentieth-century artist seeks to lay bare the sinews of Francis Bacon's tormented art. Jonathan Littell usually writes in French. Triptych was written in English, and this is its first English-language publication.
