Claim: One of Frans Denys' twelve Antwerp paintings was in a royal residence.
Evidence: Only a little over 20 paintings by Denys' hand are known. Of these, about 12 date from his Antwerp period which ran from 1635 to 1653. Two examples of the latter are the dated c. 1640 (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna) and the (Palace of Versailles), which is signed and dated 1652. The Palace of Versailles (/vɛərˈsaɪ, vɜːrˈsaɪ/ vair-SY, vur-SY; French: Château de Versailles [ʃɑto d(ə) vɛʁsɑj (listen)) was the principal royal residence of France from 1682, under Louis XIV, until the start of the French Revolution in 1789, under Louis XVI.
