Suzana și cei doi bătrâni is a work by Johann Melchior Roos, a Baroque work, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
The painting depicts a woman, Suzana, in a classical setting. She is seated with her legs crossed, wearing a white cloth draped around her lower body. Two elderly men are positioned on either side of her, with one reaching out towards her. The scene is set against a dark background, with the figures illuminated by a warm light. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the figures, drawing the viewer's attention to Suzana. The contrast between light and dark adds a sense of drama to the scene.
