Francesco Foschi, zugeschrieben
Fantastical winter mountain landscape with ancient ruins
Remnants of a monogram and a date "FF [?] ...] 69 [...]" (on the small rocky spur in the water) lower right. Oil auf canvas. 98 x 140 cm. Relined. Restored.

Links eine Bauernfamilie, die sich in einer Felsgrotte am Feuer wärmt. Es nähert sich ihnen ein Soldat. Am Gewässer vorne eine Mühle. Im Mittelgrund im Sinne eines Architekturcapriccios die Ruine eines antiken Amphitheaters (mit deutlicher Reminiszenz an das Kolosseum in Rom), hinter Bäumen eine Allusion auf die Cestius-Pyramide. Im Hintergrund ein italienisches Gebirgsdorf.

Francesco Foschi erhielt seine künstlerische Ausbildung in Rom. 1729 übersiedelte er mit seiner ganzen Familie nach Rom. Weitere Wohnsitze waren Loreto und Pesaro. Seit 1764 nahm er seinen letzten Wohnsitz an der Piazza di Spagna in Rom, in den Matrikeln der Pfarrkirche S. Andrea delle Fratte wird Foschi erstmals als "conte" geführt. Neben seiner Tätigkeit als Kunsthändler beschäftigte sich Francesco Foschi vorwiegend mit der Malerei. Ab 1750 spezialisierte er sich dabei auf Winterlandschaften, die sich damals in Italien großer Beliebtheit erfreuten.

Markante kompositorische und stilistische Übereinstimmungen sowie das mutmaßliche Monogramm FF sollten das vorliegende Gemälde in das Schaffen Francesco Foschi einordnen lassen. Die Autorin des Werkverzeichnisses zu Foschi, Marietta Vinci-Corsini, Monaco, schließt in Unkenntnis des Orignals eine Autorschaft Francesco Foschi an vorliegendem Gemälde allerdings aus.
