In spite of a number of classicising works, Ferdinand Bor is counted among the Utrecht Caravaggists. The powerful chiaroscuro present in Jesus among the Doctors is typical of Caravaggism, just as the undefined space in which the scene is staged. The unconventional interpretation of the iconography, the type of figures, the almost caricatural faces, and the smooth brushwork are features characterising Bor's entire oeuvre.
