The following is the list of 222 paintings indexed as autograph by Frans Hals, written by the art historian and Hals specialist Seymour Slive in 1974. The list is by catalogue number and is more or less in order of creation, starting from around 1610 when Hals began painting on his own. Most of these works are still considered autograph, but in the intervening half-century since Slive's work began, several others have been added to the list, including a few from Slive's "L" list of 20 lost paintings and a few from his "D" list of 81 doubtful attributions. In addition to these 101 rejections, Slive occasionally mentions other engravings and paintings in various catalogue entries, including as much provenance as possible, which has enabled scholars to make a few attributions based on those as well. The full number of paintings referenced in the Slive 1974 catalogue, whether by catalogue entry, illustration, or publication reference, is over 400. The autograph catalogue entries are as follows:

The list is by catalogue number and is more or less in order of creation, starting from around 1610 when Hals began painting on his own. Most of these works are still considered autograph, though one has since been reattributed to Judith Leyster.
