Frans Verhas or Franz Verhas (Dendermonde, 1827 – Schaerbeek, 1897)[1][2] was a Belgian painter. He is known for his portraits and genre scenes of women and children set in luxurious bourgeois homes. His elaborate salon interiors are characterised by their rich abundance and the display of a wide range of textures, such as tapestries, satins, furs, marbles and metals.[3] Frans Verhas also painted animals, history paintings and still lifes.[4][5]
