"The Woman of Samaria" by William Dyce (1806–1864) is a significant work in the oeuvre of the Scottish painter, known for his contributions to the Pre-Raphaelite movement and for his role in the revival of fresco painting in Britain. This painting, executed in 1858, is one of Dyce's most celebrated religious works, showcasing his mastery in combining historical accuracy with profound emotional depth. The artwork is based on the biblical story found in John 4:4–26, where Jesus, traveling through Samaria, encounters a Samaritan woman at Jacob's well and engages in a profound theological conversation with her, ultimately revealing his identity as the Messiah.

Dyce's interpretation of "The Woman of Samaria" is notable for its meticulous attention to detail, both in the depiction of the figures and the landscape, reflecting his academic interest in the early Italian Renaissance and the Nazarenes, a German artist group who aimed to revive honesty and spirituality in Christian art. The painting stands out for its serene and contemplative mood, achieved through the harmonious composition and the use of soft, luminous colors that highlight the spiritual significance of the encounter.

The artwork not only exemplifies Dyce's religious convictions but also his innovative approach to art, blending traditional themes with a modern sensibility. "The Woman of Samaria" has been praised for its ability to convey the depth of the biblical story's moral and spiritual lessons, making it a powerful example of Victorian religious art. The painting is held in high regard and is part of the collection of the National Galleries of Scotland, where it continues to be appreciated by audiences for its historical relevance and artistic beauty.
