Skeletons Fighting over a Hanged Man is an 1891 oil painting by the Belgian Expressionist painter James Ensor which is in the collection of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp. The work depicts an on-stage drama in which two skeletons dressed in masks and women's clothing are fighting with traditional female weapons such as brooms and umbrellas. Behind them hangs a dead body described as "civet", the French description for a hare stew. In both wings extras wearing masks and carrying knives are watching the fight. A loose web connects the body to the combatants.
