Floris was born in a large family. He was the son of a stonecutter, Cornells de Vriendt, who died at Antwerp in 1538.
He began his life as a student of sculpture, but afterwards gave up carving for painting. At the age of twenty he went to Liege and took lessons from Lambert Lombard, a pupil of Mabuse, whose travels in Italy had transformed a style truly Flemish into that of a mongrel Leonardesque.
Fired by these examples, Floris in his turn wandered across the Alps, and appropriated without assimilation the various mannerisms of the schools of Lombardy, Florence and Rome. Bold, quick and resolute, he saw how easy it would be to earn a livelihood and acquire a name by drawing for engravers and painting on a large scale after the fashion of Vasari. He came home, joined the gild of Antwerp in 1540, and quickly opened a school from which 120 disciples are stated to have issued. Floris painted strings of large pictures for the country houses of Spanish nobles and the villas of Antwerp patricians He is known to have illustrated the fable of Hercules in ten compositions, and the liberal arts in seven, for Claes Jongeling, a merchant of Antwerp, and adorned the duke of Arschot's palace of Beaumont with fourteen colossal panels. Comparatively few of his works have descended to us, partly because they came to be contemned for their inherent defects, and so were suffered to perish, partly because they were soon judged by a different standard from that of the Flemings of the 16th century. in 1547 Floris wrote a number of large paintings for country houses and villas of Spanish nobles and representatives of the Antwerp aristocracy. The work of the painter Frans Floris is associated with the late period of Romanism, when the model for Dutch artists was rather averaged norms, gleaned in the art of Michelangelo and the Italian Mannerist. The influence of the style of Michelangelo, Giorgio Vasari, Giulio Romano is evident enough in his works, such as The Feast of the Gods, (1550, Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp), The Battle with the Rebellious Angels (1554, ibid. ), " The Last Judgment "(1565, Museum of Art History, Vienna), marked by a stormy, pathetic dynamic, sharp, sometimes pretentious angles, crowded with nude athletic figures. Relatively few of the artist's works have survived to our time. Many paintings of the painter were lost during the revolutionary unrest in the Netherlands in the second half of the sixteenth century. The earliest existent canvas of Frans Floris - "Mars and Venus, caught by Volcano during amorous pleasures" is kept in the Berlin museum (1547). Pictures of the Flemish painter are also in the museums of Antwerp, Copenhagen, Dresden, Florence, Madrid, St. Petersburg, Vienna and other cities. Frans Floris died in his hometown of Antwerp on October 1, 1570.
