During his lifetime James Ensor (1860-1949) was - apart from Vincent van Gogh and Edvard Munch of the avant-garde of the North and the precursor of the German Expressionists and French Surrealists - a legend. He gained fame as the "painter of masks, " the bizarre and grotesque still-life scenes in the carnivalesque tradition of Flemish dances of death, in which he contrasted gaudy colors together.
