Wayne Franits describes convincingly Schalcken's attempts to establish himself in London. - Richard Stephens, *The Burlington Magazine*, December 2019[-][-] Franits here identifies Schalcken's key English patrons, and gives an entirely convincing account of the ways in which his art responded to their demands. His original archival work clarifies the patterns of patronage operating at that time. This material has not been seriously investigated before= Well-researched, thorough, and well-written. -- Christopher Brown, Professor of Netherlandish Art, University of Oxford[-] Franits here identifies Schalcken's key English patrons, and gives an entirely convincing account of the ways in which his art responded to their demands.
