There are paintings by him in all large public collections in Europe. Besides altarpieces and painted furniture panels, he produced mainly small cabinet pictures with historical, mythological or allegorical themes. Frans II's rank as an artist is not so much derived from his extensive output as from his innovative subject-matter: his depictions of luxuriously decorated Kunstkammern and art galleries   Related Paintings of Francken, Frans II :. | The Triumph of Neptune and Amphitrite | Allegory on the Abdication of Emperor Charles V in Brussels 25 October 1555 | Madonna and Child in a Landscape | An Antique Dealer's Gallery | An Antique Dealer-s Gallery |
