Painting Description
"Der Barmherzige Samariter" (The Good Samaritan) is an oil painting by Swiss artist Robert Zünd, created in 1870. The painting is a visual interpretation of the parable of the Good Samaritan, a story from the Christian New Testament, specifically the Gospel of Luke. In this parable, a Samaritan helps a traveler who has been stripped of clothing, beaten, and left half dead alongside the road, after being ignored by a priest and a Levite.
Zünd, known for his meticulous landscapes that often carry a narrative or moral significance, combines his skill in landscape painting with religious subject matter in "Der Barmherzige Samariter." The artwork is characterized by its attention to detail, use of light, and the harmonious integration of the figures within the natural setting. The painting reflects the 19th-century European academic art tradition, with its emphasis on classical composition and the idealization of nature.
The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and ethical implications, as it visually reinforces the moral lesson of the biblical story—that of compassion and care for those in need, regardless of social boundaries. "Der Barmherzige Samariter" is an example of Zünd's religious-themed works and contributes to the understanding of the role of biblical narratives in 19th-century European art.
As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a private or public collection, and it has been displayed in various exhibitions that focus on Swiss art or the broader context of European religious painting. The piece continues to be studied for its technique, composition, and thematic depth, and it remains an important work within Robert Zünd's oeuvre.
