Painting Description
Der Barmherzige Samariter" is an oil painting by acclaimed German-Jewish artist Max Liebermann, created in 1895. This work is considered part of Liebermann's Realism period, focusing on biblical themes, a striking divergence from his previous works portraying bourgeois life, local scenes and landscapes.
The painting depicts the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan from book of Luke in the New Testament, presenting the powerful narrative through a compassionate lens. The Good Samaritan is portrayed extending a hand of kindness to the beaten and robbed traveler, providing him relief.
Liebermann utilizes his masterful technique of contrasting light and shade to create a dramatic atmosphere in the canvas while highlighting the core message of altruism and empathy. His innovative use of loose brushwork adds to the authenticity of the setting, providing the piece with ruggedness that pairs well with the biblical era.
"Der Barmherzige Samariter" is a significant artwork, representing a phase of Liebermann's career when he began focusing on universal themes of humanity and morality. As suggested by the subject matter of the painting, Liebermann was keen to delve into the exploration of moral principles in society, thereby creating works which transcended beyond mere depictions to become timeless socio-moral commentaries.
Precise location and ownership of the painting remain unknown, clearly demonstrating a gap in the lineage of Liebermann's works. Researchers and art historians continue to search for accurate information about its whereabouts, reiterating the importance and value of the piece.
