Le Bonsamaritain (The Good Samaritan) is a notable etching created by the French artist Rodolphe Bresdin in 1861. Bresdin, known for his intricate and fantastical works, was a master of printmaking, and Le Bonsamaritain is often cited as one of his most significant achievements. The etching is inspired by the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan, which tells the story of a Samaritan who helps a man beaten and left for dead by the roadside, while others pass by without offering assistance.

Bresdin's interpretation of the parable is rendered in his characteristic style, marked by an extraordinary level of detail and a dense, almost overwhelming composition. The scene is set in a lush, overgrown landscape filled with an abundance of flora and fauna, creating a sense of both wonder and claustrophobia. The central figures of the Samaritan and the injured man are almost swallowed by the surrounding wilderness, emphasizing the themes of compassion and human connection amidst the vast and indifferent natural world.

The etching showcases Bresdin's technical prowess and his ability to imbue his works with a sense of mystery and otherworldliness. His meticulous attention to detail and his imaginative vision have earned him a place among the most distinctive artists of the 19th century. Le Bonsamaritain, with its complex interplay of light and shadow and its rich, textured surface, exemplifies Bresdin's unique approach to art and his fascination with the interplay between humanity and nature.

Le Bonsamaritain has been praised for its emotional depth and its intricate beauty, and it continues to be studied and admired by art historians and enthusiasts alike. The work is a testament to Bresdin's skill as an etcher and his ability to convey profound themes through his art.
