"Toro Con Cani," also known as "Bull with Dogs," is a Baroque-era painting by German artist Philipp Peter Roos, also known as Rosa da Tivoli due to his long residence in the Italian town of Tivoli. The painting is a vivid representation of a bullfighting scene, a subject that Roos, renowned for his animal paintings, often depicted with dramatic realism and dynamic composition. The artwork showcases a fierce confrontation between a bull and several dogs, a spectacle that was popular in 17th-century Europe and reflected the period's fascination with nature and its untamed aspects.

Philipp Peter Roos was born in Frankfurt am Main in 1657 and was trained under his father, the painter Johann Heinrich Roos. He later moved to Italy, where he developed a distinctive style characterized by his focus on pastoral and animal subjects, often set against the backdrop of the Roman Campagna. "Toro Con Cani" exemplifies Roos's skill in capturing the movement and ferocity of animals, as well as his adept use of chiaroscuro to enhance the drama of the scene.

The painting is noted for its detailed portrayal of the animals' musculature and the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, which adds a sense of depth and movement to the composition. Roos's ability to convey the textures of fur and hide and his keen observation of animal behavior contribute to the lifelike quality of the work.

While the exact date of "Toro Con Cani" is not known, it is believed to have been created during Roos's time in Tivoli, where he worked from 1677 until his death in 1706. The painting is representative of the artist's mature period, during which he enjoyed considerable success and his works were sought after by collectors and patrons.

"Toro Con Cani" remains an important work within Roos's oeuvre and is significant for its contribution to the genre of animal painting in the Baroque period. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as an example of the thematic interests and stylistic techniques prevalent in European art of the late 17th century.
