''Le Bon Samaritain'' (The Good Samaritan) is a notable etching by French artist Rodolphe Bresdin (1822–1885), created in the mid-19th century. Bresdin, known for his intricate and fantastical works, often depicted scenes filled with elaborate detail and whimsical, sometimes dark, imagery. This particular etching is based on the parable of the Good Samaritan from the New Testament, in which a Samaritan helps a traveler who has been stripped of clothing, beaten, and left half dead alongside the road.

Bresdin's interpretation of this biblical scene is characterized by its fine lines and attention to detail, a hallmark of his printmaking technique. The composition likely reflects Bresdin's interest in the themes of compassion and human kindness, set against a backdrop of suffering and neglect—themes that were relevant in his time and continue to resonate today.

The artwork is significant not only for its subject matter but also for its demonstration of Bresdin's skill in the medium of etching. His ability to create a sense of depth and texture through his intricate line work is evident in this piece. ''Le Bon Samaritain'' stands as a testament to Bresdin's imaginative vision and his mastery of printmaking, contributing to his reputation as an artist who influenced later Symbolists and Surrealists with his dreamlike and often macabre scenes.

While ''Le Bon Samaritain'' is not as widely recognized as some of Bresdin's other works, such as ''The Comedy of Death'' or ''The Flight into Egypt,'' it remains an important piece within his oeuvre. It offers insight into the artist's personal interpretation of religious narratives and his capacity to infuse such stories with a sense of otherworldly wonder.

As with many of Bresdin's prints, ''Le Bon Samaritain'' is held in high regard by collectors and scholars of printmaking and is featured in various art museum collections, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its complexity and beauty.
