Über das Gemälde
Johann Melchior Roos (1659-1731) was born in Frankfurt. He was the son and pupil of Johann Heinrich Roos (1631-1685) and subsequently attended the drawing academy at The Hague. Between 1686 and 1690 he lived in Rome and Tivoli. He later settled in Nuremberg and he became court painter to prince Bishop Lothar Franz von Schönborn in Frankfurt am Main.
This painting is a fine example of Johann Melchior Roos' compositions heavily influenced by his father's. It shows a coach attacked by brigands under a bridge with a distant landscape in the background. This type of paintings is characteristic of the Bamboccianti, active in Rome in the second half of the 17th century.
