专家说明

On the far right, the Baron François Gevaert, the Conservator of the Royal Conservatory in Brussels conducts an orchestra composed of members from his Conservatory in Wagner's opera Die Walkürie, one of Ensor's favourite musical pieces, which he heard in 1883 in Brussels. Above them, hanging in a frame, Wagner crying of anger and covering his ears up. The present drawing is closely related in subject and composition to the painting Au conservatoire, 1902 (Tricot, no. 389).
