James Ensor, master of symbolism and modern satire

James Ensor (1860–1949), a major figure of Belgian avant-garde, navigates between symbolism, grotesque, and social satire. Influenced by the Ostend carnivals and Flemish masters, he invented a pictorial language made of masks, skeletons, and carnival scenes that disturbed and fascinated his era. Among his famous works are Les Masques, L’Entrée du Christ à Bruxelles, and numerous canvases that challenge the conventions of realism. Thanks to his bold use of color and sense of irony, James Ensor profoundly marked the transition to modern art, making each painting an aesthetic and moral statement.
