クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「Featured in the Art Moderne sale on October 23 are works by James Ensor, a major figure in the Belgian avant-garde and an important precursor to the development of Expressionism.⠀ .⠀ Completed in 1927, this striking portrait of the artist's niece serves as an example of the painter's visual lexicon.⠀ .⠀ Here, as he often did, Ensor instils inanimate objects with as much life as the central figure with an abundance of details.⠀ .⠀ The sanguine, static pose of Alexandrine Daveluy contrasts with the scene that is being staged.⠀ .⠀ 'L'entrée du Christ à Bruxelles' depicts Jesus arriving as a revolutionary political figure during the maelstrom of the Brussels carnival. Ensor regularly attended carnivals and was fascinated by the energy and noise of the crowds.⠀ .⠀ James Ensor (1860-1949), 'Portrait d'Alexandra Daveluy', 1927. Estimate: €400,000 - €600,000.⠀ .⠀ James Ensor (1860-1949), 'L'entrée du Christ à Bruxelles'.
