Franco-Flemish artist Frans I Franken painted genre scenes and religious subjects in the late 1500s.

The work blends Northern Renaissance detail with Italianate light, a common mix in Antwerp workshops of the era. Want to see more scenes from this quiet port tradition? Tap the bay itself in *Batseba la baie* to explore similar light and water studies.
