In 1893, he was knighted for his exceptional talent and contributions to the field.

"The Emblem" (1902) stands as a testament to Dicksee's skillful storytelling abilities. Through this painting, he weaves a narrative that captivates audiences while leaving room for personal interpretation. In addition to these larger works, Dicksee also created stunning studies like "Study for Paolo and Francesca" (1895). These preparatory sketches offer insight into the artist's creative process and attention to detail. Throughout his career, Frank Dicksee collaborated with various individuals from different artistic backgrounds.

A portrait painted by Alick P F Ritchie in 1926 immortalizes Sir Francis Bernard Dicksee as an influential figure within British art history. His talents were recognized early on when Lock & Whitfield captured him as an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1883—an achievement that foreshadowed his future success.
