A painting by Francesco titled "Saint Antonio Searches with Great Interest for the Heart in the Coffin."

Alongside his Assassin life, Francesco pursued a painting career during the 1520's to 1530's in Cadore, but he would never become as succesful as his younger brother Tiziano Vecellio. In 1524, he signed an altarpiece for San Vito in Cadore. During the 1540's, he painted a polyptych in Candide. In the late 1540s, he painted the organ shutters of San Salvatore in Venice. He painted an Annunciation for San Nicola di Bari, now in the Accademia.

He died in 1560.
