"The Good Samaritan" is an oil painting completed in 1846 by the French painter Jean-François Millet, who is noted for his depictions of peasant farmers and rural life. The painting illustrates the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan, as recounted in the Gospel of Luke (10:25–37), where a Samaritan helps a traveler who has been stripped of clothing, beaten, and left half dead alongside the road.

Millet's interpretation of this scene is a testament to his profound humanism and his concern for the social issues of his time. The painting shows the moment when the Samaritan, moved by compassion, tends to the wounds of the injured man. Millet's use of color, light, and composition emphasizes the act of mercy and the stark contrast between the victim's suffering and the landscape's serene beauty.

Measuring 55.5 cm × 46 cm (21.9 in × 18.1 in), the artwork is a relatively small canvas that captures a powerful moral narrative. Millet's style in "The Good Samaritan" is characteristic of the Barbizon school, with its focus on realism and nature, and it prefigures his later, more famous works that depict the dignity of labor and rural life.

"The Good Samaritan" by Millet is housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France, where it continues to be an important work in the history of French painting, reflecting the social consciousness and artistic skill that define Millet's enduring legacy. This painting is not only significant for its artistic merit but also as a reflection of the social and moral values of the period in which it was created.
