Ensor et Bruxelles. Arts Premiers inaugurated in 1886If James Ensor (18601949) is inextricably linked to Ostend, yet it was in Brussels that he flourished as an artist, becoming a key figure in the Belgian avant garde. The young painter moved to the capital in 1877 and, until the turn of the century, considered Brussels his second home. This richly illustrated book explores the city of his time, revealing the key places, encounters, and events that shaped Ensor, both as an artist and as a human being.
