Christ's Entry Into Brussels in 1889 is an 1888 oil-on-canvas painting by the Belgian artist James Ensor. The work, satirising Jesus's triumphal entry into Jerusalem celebrated on Palm Sunday, is considered Ensor's most famous composition and a precursor to Expressionism. The picture is in the collection of the Getty Center in Los Angeles, California.

Satirizing what?

I have changed "satirising" to "parodying" in the opening paragraph. This may be a satirical painting, but the entry into Jerusalem isn't the target of the satire. I am not sure what is: contemporary society, Carnival, the mob, whoever used the slogan "Vive la sociale", or maybe the followers of Emile Littré, identified in the Getty description as the mock bishop in the foreground?
