"I was charmed to find two masters so smitten with light and violence," James Ensor once said about two of his favourite artists, JMW Turner and Goya. In this video, curator Adrian Locke discusses Ensor's painting 'Adam and Eve Expelled from Paradise’ (1887) and the influence that Turner's use of light and colour had on the Belgian painter.
