"Der Gute Bruder" is an oil-on-canvas painting completed in 1907 by the Austrian painter Eugene de Blaas, also known as Eugen von Blaas. Known for his depictions of Venetian life, de Blaas created "Der Gute Bruder" as an example of genre painting, which focuses on everyday scenes. The painting portrays a male monk or friar, assumedly ‘the good brother’ implied in the title. The figure is illuminated in the foreground with his back to a doorway, engrossed in reading a book, creating a mood of tranquility and deep contemplation. His Augustinian habit, marked by a pointed hood and a white tunic, indicates his religious association. Besides the central figure, the architectural background displaying Gothic-style arches and an atmospheric scene of shadows and light convey the austere setting of a monastery.

The painting is reflective of de Blaas’s interest in the daily life of ordinary individuals, capturing their activities with a realistic and detailed rendering. Eugene de Blaas employs vibrant colors and carefully executed details, characteristics of his academic art style. As of the latest information available, "Der Gute Bruder" remains a private collection and is not currently on display in any public museum.
