Book Description:
|
Enter the ominous and enigmatic world of masks, the macabre, and mockery as we explore Belgian maverick James Ensor's unique repertoire of ghoulish scenes and gallows humor. An Expressionist before the term was even coined, Ensor continues to influence generations of artists through his distinctively dark satire, which drew on a rich stylistic repertoire from the Gothic fantastical to the Christian visionary.
