"Boy Attacked by a Dog" is a notable painting from circa 1680 by the Spanish Baroque artist Pedro Núñez de Villavicencio. This work is an example of the artist's skill in capturing the drama and immediacy of a moment, a characteristic of Baroque art. The painting depicts a young boy in a moment of distress, being attacked by a dog, which is a subject not commonly portrayed in the art of that period. The expression of fear and surprise on the boy's face, along with the aggressive stance of the dog, conveys a sense of movement and emotional intensity that engages the viewer.

Pedro Núñez de Villavicencio was born in Seville in 1644 and was a disciple of the prominent Spanish painter Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. Villavicencio's works are known for their naturalism and often include genre scenes and representations of children, which were influenced by his master Murillo's style. "Boy Attacked by a Dog" reflects Villavicencio's interest in everyday life and his ability to portray human emotion and action.

The painting is executed in oil on canvas, a common medium for the time, which allowed for the rich detail and texture that is evident in the work. The use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, heightens the dramatic effect and focuses the viewer's attention on the central figures of the boy and the dog.

"Boy Attacked by a Dog" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the understanding of Spanish Baroque art and the social context of the 17th century. The painting is part of a larger tradition of Spanish artists exploring the human condition through realistic and often stark imagery. It remains an important work for study by art historians and is appreciated by audiences for its powerful depiction of a moment of crisis.

The painting is held in a private collection or museum, and it has been exhibited and studied as part of the oeuvre of Pedro Núñez de Villavicencio. Its exact location and provenance may provide additional insight into the history and influence of this work within the context of Spanish art history.
