"Le Bon Samaritain" is a notable painting by the French Neo-Impressionist artist Maximilien Luce, created in 1896. Luce, born in 1858, was a prominent figure in the Neo-Impressionist movement, which was characterized by the use of pointillism—a technique involving the application of small, distinct dots of color to form an image. This movement was pioneered by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, and Luce was among its most dedicated practitioners.

The painting "Le Bon Samaritain" (The Good Samaritan) draws its subject from the well-known parable in the Christian Bible, found in the Gospel of Luke. The parable tells the story of a Samaritan who helps a man who has been beaten and left for dead by the roadside, while others pass by without offering assistance. This theme of compassion and altruism is vividly captured in Luce's work.

In "Le Bon Samaritain," Luce employs his signature pointillist technique to create a vibrant and dynamic composition. The meticulous application of color dots creates a luminous effect, enhancing the emotional impact of the scene. The painting is notable for its rich color palette and the way Luce captures light and shadow, bringing a sense of realism and immediacy to the biblical narrative.

Luce's interpretation of the Good Samaritan parable reflects his broader social and political concerns. Known for his anarchist beliefs, Luce often depicted scenes of everyday life and social struggle, emphasizing themes of solidarity and human kindness. "Le Bon Samaritain" can be seen as an extension of these themes, highlighting the importance of compassion and mutual aid in society.

The painting is part of the collection at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to be admired for its technical mastery and its poignant message. "Le Bon Samaritain" remains a significant work in Luce's oeuvre and a testament to the enduring power of Neo-Impressionism.
