![Jacob Adriaensz Bellevois - Allegory of Summer [1680]](http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8670/15422064853_4d254c4374_o.jpg)
In the mountains, a convoy of horses, carriages and armed escorts is attacked by a band of brigands. Shots are fired, and victims fall. There is a wild flurry of figures and horses. The steep, jagged rocks lend extra drama to the scene. The Haarlem painter Berchem made this painting after a model by Pieter van Laer.
