"King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba" is a notable oil painting by Flemish Baroque painter Frans Francken the Younger, created in the early 17th century. The artwork is a visual representation of the biblical encounter between the wise King Solomon of Israel and the enigmatic Queen of Sheba, as described in the Books of Kings and Chronicles in the Hebrew Bible. Francken, known for his skill in depicting complex, multi-figure compositions, brings to life the opulence and grandeur of this legendary meeting.

The painting captures the moment of the queen's visit to Solomon's court, showcasing the exchange of gifts, wisdom, and cultural dialogues between the two monarchs. Francken's use of vibrant colors, intricate details, and the careful arrangement of figures reflects the splendor and ceremony associated with the event. The artwork is imbued with allegorical elements and iconography that were typical of the Counter-Reformation period, aiming to convey moral and spiritual messages through the depiction of historical and biblical scenes.

"King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba" is considered an important work in Francken's oeuvre, illustrating the artist's mastery of narrative painting and his ability to blend religious themes with the secular interests of his patrons. The painting not only serves as a testament to Francken's artistic talents but also provides insight into the cultural and intellectual exchanges of the time, as well as the fascination with the exotic and the wisdom of the ancient world.

The painting is held in various art collections and has been exhibited in several museums, contributing to the understanding of the cultural and artistic context of the early 17th century in the Southern Netherlands. Its historical and artistic significance makes it a valuable piece for scholars studying the Baroque period and the representation of biblical themes in European art.
