Le Bon Samaritain, or The Good Samaritan, is a notable painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Pedro De Orrente, who was active during the early 17th century. Orrente, often referred to as the "Spanish Bassano" due to his stylistic similarities with the Venetian painter Jacopo Bassano, is renowned for his religious and pastoral scenes that blend naturalism with dramatic intensity. Le Bon Samaritain exemplifies Orrente's adeptness at capturing biblical narratives with emotional depth and vivid realism.

The painting depicts the parable of the Good Samaritan, a story from the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament, where a Samaritan helps a wounded traveler who had been ignored by a priest and a Levite. Orrente's interpretation of this parable is marked by its dynamic composition and the expressive gestures of the figures, which convey the themes of compassion and mercy central to the story. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that contrasts light and shadow, enhances the dramatic effect and draws the viewer's attention to the central act of kindness.

Orrente's background in the Spanish Golden Age of painting is evident in his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to infuse his works with a sense of realism and humanity. His works often reflect the influence of Italian Renaissance art, which he encountered during his travels in Italy. Le Bon Samaritain, like many of Orrente's works, demonstrates his skill in rendering textures and materials, from the roughness of the Samaritan's garments to the wounded man's exposed flesh.

This painting not only serves as a religious and moral lesson but also as a testament to Orrente's artistic prowess and his contribution to the Spanish Baroque movement. Le Bon Samaritain remains an important piece in the study of Baroque art, illustrating the period's characteristic blend of realism, emotion, and dramatic storytelling.
