"Christus door duivels gekweld" (Christ Tormented by Devils), a 1895 etching by Belgian artist James Ensor, depicts a chaotic scene of grotesque figures surrounding a crucified Christ. The image features skeletons, demons, and masked figures, alluding to Ensor's fascination with the macabre and the grotesque. The artwork exemplifies Ensor's signature style of social satire and symbolic imagery, reflecting the anxieties and societal contradictions of his time.
