The Hidden World of James Ensor Book of Revelations
An illustrated guide to the hidden world of James Ensor, presenting visual examples rather than text-reliant explanations. This independently researched and published book (strictly limited to an edition of 500, each copy individually numbered) rejects institutional dogma and provides a new basis for thinking about the work of James Ensor, Belgium's most lauded painter. Tom Jacobson reveals hidden facets of Ensor's work that not only fly in the face of pre-established notions but provide a path for reinterpreting Ensor's early and late periods. Packed with 54 full-color illustrations and accompanied by 26 supplemental discoveries in text, these remarkable examples beg the question: How has this aspect of Ensor's art gone undetected for so long? Jacobson's immense investigation brings the reader the private pleasure of uncovering and redefining an artist.
