This work is an example of Francken's skill in depicting intricate historical and allegorical scenes, which were popular among the wealthy patrons of the time.

The painting portrays a lavish banquet at the residence of Nicolaas Rockox, who was a significant patron of the arts and burgomaster (mayor) of Antwerp. Rockox was known for his support of artists, including Peter Paul Rubens, and his own collection included works by leading painters of the era. In Francken's depiction, the grandeur of the burgomaster's house is evident, with sumptuous textiles, fine silverware, and an abundance of food, reflecting the wealth and status of the host.

Francken's composition is rich in detail and symbolism, often incorporating moral or didactic themes. "Supper at the House of Burgomaster Rockox" is likely to be no exception, with the potential inclusion of allegorical elements that comment on the virtues of hospitality, the role of civic leaders, or the cultural and intellectual life of Antwerp during its Golden Age.

The painting serves as a historical document of the period, offering insights into the social and cultural practices of the elite in early 17th-century Flanders. It also exemplifies the Mannerist style that Francken and his contemporaries were developing, characterized by elongated figures, vibrant colors, and complex compositions.
