House of James Ensor, a famous Belgian painter, engraver and anarchist, where he spent the last years of his life.

This is the house where James Ensor, famous Belgian painter, engraver and anarchist, spent the last 32 years of his life. He inherited it in 1917 from his uncle, Leopold Haeghman, who - like Ensor's parents a little further down the street - ran a seashell and souvenir store. Most of his paintings were created in the attic studio of his parents' house. However, it was so cramped that he was never able to complete his absolute masterpiece: The Entry of Christ into Brussels!

La MAISON DE JAMES ENSOR est à voir ! intéressante à tout point de vue : depuis des oeuvres de l'artiste , jusque la maison elle-même , avec tous ses bibelots , maison d'un temps révolu , certes , mais A VOIR .... et c'est tout près du Centre Ville d'Ostende

Half price on presentation of the Kustpass Very small museum but which gives a good overview of Ensor's life.
