A journalist looks at Francis Bacon's paintings " Three Studies of Lucian Freud - 1969 " during the opening of the exhibition 'Caravaggio and Bacon' at the Borghese museum in Rome on September 30, 2009. A triptych by British painter Francis Bacon -- "Three Studies of Lucian Freud" -- sold for $142.4 million on November 12, 2013 smashing the world record for the most expensive piece of art auctioned. The work by the 20th century figurative artist, who lived from 1909 to 1992, had never before been put under the hammer until Christie's flagship evening sale. It was bought by a New York gallery.
