Description

James Ensor: A Brussels Story This lavishly illustrated book explores the life and art of Belgian artist James Ensor, who settled in Brussels in 1877. The city played a pivotal role in shaping his work and personality, as he navigated the intersection of prosperous bourgeois and struggling bohemians, conservative critics and rebellious artists. Through more than two hundred works from the Royal Library of Belgium and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, this publication offers a unique insight into Ensor's artistic development. The book takes readers on a journey to discover the places, encounters, and events that influenced his art and human experience. With its richly detailed illustrations and comprehensive collections dating back to the 1890s, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Ensor's life and work.
