Frans van, zis Floris Vriendt
Frans van, zis Floris Vriendt is an artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Brukenthal National Museum.
Frans van Vriendt painted lively mythological scenes and detailed portraits. Look for his *Mars and Venus Spied on by the Gods of Olympus*, where gods peek through clouds at the gods of war and love.

Tap *Man in a Red Hood* to see how he balanced shadow and light in a single print.
