I love the macabre “Two Beauties” – never heard of Wiertz before, thanks. There must be something in the water in Belgium, because it seems to have produced more painters of the Weird than any other European country.
These are a few of my favourite off-the-wall C19th Symbolist painters and illustrators fwiw:

Felicien Rops http://www.fulltable.com/r/im02/rops.jpg (which for some reason was thought to be suitable material to be made into a postage stamp in Belgium!)
