About the piece
Created around 1700 by Philipp Peter Roos, this atmospheric work captures a serene moment in the Italian countryside. A herd of cattle and donkeys rest in the foreground near an ancient well, while rugged hills and crumbling ruins rise under a vast, moody sky. The painting reflects the 'Rosa da Tivoli' style, celebrated for its rugged, earthy depictions of livestock and the Roman Campagna.
