Hélas! mon chere Mauclair, je n'ai pas trouvé mon nom parmi en novateurs. Pourquoi cet ostracisme? Parce que j'ai précédé et non suive le mouvement? (...) Isolé à Ostende sans connaître alors l'école impressioniste, j'ai devancé les recherches modernes et influencé durant plusieurs années nos peintres belges aujourd'hui très arrivés (...). Ah! si vous avez vu mes oeuvres et surtout "Le chou" peint en 1880 exposé dernierement à la Libre esthétique. Les Monet de 1880 son noirs et opaques et les Van Gogh n'existerent pas alors. (...) Les critiques parisiens n'ont pas signalé mes oeuvres. Oui, ma place n'indiqueant parmi les premiers chercheurs de lumière dans votre livre si complet. Vous ecrivez bien à propos "Ensor n'a nullement la réputation qu'il mérite", c'est ca un effet de l'ingnorance de certain critique et de l''absurde besoin de coller une etiquette au dos des artistes (...)".
