L\u2019Essor was an association of visual artists in Brussels, which was active from 1876 to 1891. Its original aim was to rebel against the conservative tendencies of the art institutions and art circles in Brussels. However in 1883 some of the artists of this group were dissatisfied with the ruling body of the group with regards its admission policy, lack of direction and their controversial decision to reject Belgian Expressionist painter James Ensor\u2019s <em>The Oyster Eater<\/em> in the 1883 L\u2019Essor Salon. However, it has to be remembered that the previous year the Antwerp Salon jurists had rejected the same painting. It is thought that the rejection was because of the sexual overtones suggested by a single young woman eating oysters, which at the time was considered to be an aphrodisiac.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mydailyartdisplay.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/oprichters_les_xx-3.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"25051\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/mydailyartdisplay.uk\/2025\/04\/20\/theophile-theo-van-rysselberghe-part-1\/oprichters_les_xx-4\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/mydailyartdisplay.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/oprichters_les_xx-3.png\" data-orig-size=\"518,148\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Oprichters_Les_XX\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/mydailyartdisplay.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/oprichters_les_xx-3.png?w=300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/mydailyartdisplay.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/oprichters_les_xx-3.png?w=518\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"518\" height=\"148\" src=\"https:\/\/mydailyartdisplay.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/oprichters_les_xx-3.png?w=518\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25051\" style=\"width:627px;height:auto\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><em>Portraits of or work by the 11 original founders of\u00a0Les XX.
