Painting Description
"Arrival of the Samaritan at the Inn" is a notable work by French artist Gustave Doré, an engraver, illustrator, and painter renowned for his detailed and imaginative visualizations of scenes from literature, history, and religion. This particular piece is part of Doré's extensive body of work illustrating biblical narratives, and it depicts the moment from the parable of the Good Samaritan, as told in the Gospel of Luke (10:25–37), when the Samaritan brings the injured man to an inn for care after having compassion on him by the roadside.
Created in the 19th century, Doré's illustration captures the essence of the biblical story, emphasizing themes of mercy and compassion across cultural divides. The artwork is characterized by Doré's dramatic use of light and shadow, which serves to highlight the central figures and underscore the emotional intensity of the scene. The Samaritan is typically portrayed as a figure of noble bearing, in contrast to the wounded man, whose plight elicits the viewer's empathy.
Doré's "Arrival of the Samaritan at the Inn" is part of his larger body of work that contributed to the popular visual culture of the time, especially through the widespread dissemination of his illustrations in books and prints. His biblical illustrations, in particular, have been celebrated for their power to convey complex narratives and moral lessons, and they continue to be studied for their artistic and cultural significance.
As with many of Doré's works, this illustration not only served to embellish the text it accompanied but also stood on its own as a work of art, reflecting the artist's skill in composition and his ability to evoke a profound emotional response from the viewer. The piece remains an important example of Doré's contribution to the visual interpretation of biblical stories and is of interest to scholars of art history, religious studies, and the intersection of visual and literary culture.
