"The Mocking of Christ, In An En Grisaille Surround With Scenes From The Life Of Christ And The Four Evangelists" is a notable work by the Flemish Baroque painter Frans II Francken. Born into a family of artists in Antwerp in 1581, Francken was a prominent figure in the early 17th century, renowned for his detailed and expressive religious compositions. This particular painting exemplifies his mastery in the use of grisaille, a technique involving shades of grey to create a monochromatic effect that mimics the appearance of sculpture.

The central theme of the painting is the Mocking of Christ, a poignant and emotionally charged moment from the Passion of Christ, where Jesus is humiliated and tortured by Roman soldiers. Francken's depiction is both vivid and somber, capturing the intensity of the scene with meticulous attention to detail and human expression. Surrounding this central tableau are smaller scenes that narrate various episodes from the Life of Christ, providing a comprehensive visual narrative that underscores the significance of the central event.

In addition to these scenes, the painting also features representations of the Four Evangelists—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—each traditionally associated with one of the four living creatures described in the Book of Revelation. These figures are often depicted with their respective symbols: an angel for Matthew, a lion for Mark, an ox for Luke, and an eagle for John. Their inclusion serves to reinforce the theological context of the work, linking the Passion of Christ to the broader narrative of the Gospels.

Francken's use of en grisaille not only highlights his technical skill but also imbues the painting with a sculptural quality, creating a sense of depth and texture that enhances the viewer's engagement with the scenes. This technique, combined with his adept storytelling and rich iconography, makes "The Mocking of Christ, In An En Grisaille Surround With Scenes From The Life Of Christ And The Four Evangelists" a significant example of Francken's contribution to Baroque religious art.
