The Albertina juxtaposes the figurative painting of Pablo Picasso and Francis Bacon through their treatment of the human body, vulnerability and desire. Its selected gallery documents particular paintings with dates, media, dimensions and collection credits. Those examples remain documentary entries where exact main-catalogue identities are unresolved; the works are not linked merely because another painting shares a sitter or title.
Images where available. Every entry keeps its exhibition evidence.
