Painting Description
"The Good Samaritan" is a renowned etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1633. Catalogued as Bartsch 90 and Hollstein 101, this work is a striking example of Rembrandt's skill in conveying narrative and emotion through the medium of printmaking. The etching depicts the parable of the Good Samaritan from the Gospel of Luke, in which a Samaritan man aids a traveler who has been stripped, beaten, and left for dead by the roadside after being ignored by a priest and a Levite.
Measuring approximately 25.5 cm × 20.7 cm, the etching is noted for its intricate detail and the dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro, which Rembrandt employed to enhance the storytelling and create a sense of depth. The composition is rich with characters and activity, drawing the viewer's eye to the central act of compassion performed by the Samaritan, who is shown in the act of bandaging the wounds of the injured man.
Rembrandt's "The Good Samaritan" is not only a testament to his mastery of etching but also reflects his deep engagement with religious and moral themes. The work is part of a larger body of Rembrandt's prints that explore biblical stories, allowing him to delve into the complexities of human emotion and the nuances of spiritual lessons.
This etching is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors alike and can be found in various museum collections around the world. It serves as a prime example of Rembrandt's ability to transform a well-known biblical story into a powerful visual narrative that resonates with viewers across centuries.
