His work often features grotesque or exaggerated figures. He moved away from the idealised beauty of the High Renaissance to explore the expressive potential of the bizarre. Many of his canvases depict soldiers in feathered hats or philosophers. He also painted occult scenes. He used thick paint and visible brushstrokes to create textures that feel physical. This approach gave his subjects a sense of rough, immediate presence.

Modern collectors value his work for its theatricality and dark humour. His paintings offer a departure from standard religious scenes. They provide a conversation piece for a home because of their strange subject matter and bold execution. His ability to bridge the gap between classical tradition and Baroque eccentricity makes his prints a choice for those seeking art with a sharp, intellectual edge.
