Daring and socially engaged, Ensor included political, religious, historical, and autobiographical themes in his works. He is known for brightly colored depictions of masked skeletons, seascapes, and carnivals, which frequently tend toward the macabre or grotesque. Structured like a biography, this book explores Ensor's life and art year by year. Chapters are illustrated with Ensor's masterpieces as well as archival photographs and previously unpublished letters. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Xavier Tricot\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300253974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300253979\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.80w x 0.80d","brand":"Xavier Tricot","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983260614911,"sku":"9780300253979","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b168c3f2-bd6a-4a91-b025-626ab9907f16.jpg?v=1683265590","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/james-ensor-xavier-tricot-9780300253979","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
