Friedrich Valckenborch

Friedrich Valckenborch is a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Brukenthal National Museum.

This painter made detailed scenes of everyday life in the early 1600s. Look at *Atacul hoților* (1622), a busy street scene full of people and horses caught in the middle of a robbery. The work shows how towns looked and felt nearly 400 years ago. Tap into the painting itself to explore the crowd’s faces and the horse’s nervous stance.
