Bruxelles 1900

Μην χάσετε

• Khnopff's Des Caresses (1896)

  A scene recalling Oedipus and the Sphinx among blue columns and enigmatic signs, a riddle the museum says resists any single reading.

• Ensor's Le Squelette peintre (1896)

  Ensor, author of more than sixty self-portraits, paints himself with worn-out brushes among his own masks and skeletons.

• Wolfers's Caresse du cygne (1897)

  A bronze swan wraps around an outsized elephant tusk, the star piece of the 1897 colonial exhibition's ivory display.

• Laermans's Un soir de grève (1893)

  A crowd marches behind a socialist flag while one young woman looks straight at you, hesitating, and a child cries in its mother's skirts.

• Maria Sèthe at the harmonium (1891)

  Van Rysselberghe's pointillist portrait once hung in the hall of the Bloemenwerf villa, where the pink walls matched her dress.

Under-18s get in free, and a trail for ages 6 to 10 follows the strange dwarf Punch from room to room to find the oddest works.
