Painting Description
"The Samaritan at the Well" is a notable painting by the French realist artist Léon Augustin Lhermitte, created in 1896. This work is inspired by the biblical story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well, as recounted in the Gospel of John, chapter 4. Lhermitte, renowned for his rural scenes depicting peasant life, brings his characteristic attention to detail and naturalism to this religious subject.
The painting captures the moment of the encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman, a scene rich with theological and cultural significance. Lhermitte's interpretation is distinguished by his use of light and shadow, as well as his skillful rendering of the figures and the landscape, which imbue the scene with a sense of realism and humanity.
"The Samaritan at the Well" reflects Lhermitte's interest in the lives of ordinary people and his ability to infuse everyday scenes with a sense of dignity and moral depth. The artwork is a testament to the artist's mastery of the academic painting style and his commitment to portraying subjects with empathy and respect.
As a prominent example of Lhermitte's work, "The Samaritan at the Well" has been discussed in the context of the artist's broader oeuvre, which includes both genre scenes of rural life and religious compositions. The painting is held in high regard for its technical excellence and its poignant representation of a timeless biblical story through the lens of 19th-century realism.
