The print "Wizards in a Squall" is one of the highlights of Ensor's fantastical imagery. In a flying storm, a huge, strange witch gives birth to monstrous naked witches in quick succession. In a certain sense the etching can be seen as the sequel to the print "The Infernal Cortege", in which Ensor depicted similar witches in a parade (inv. 1998-B-10).
