EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned painting "Bon Samaritain - The Good Samaritan" by Pieter Pietersz Lastman. Created in 1612, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 102.2x128 inches and is currently held in a private collection. Lastman, a Dutch artist from the Baroque era, beautifully captures the essence of this biblical scene through his meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of color. The painting depicts the parable of the Good Samaritan, illustrating themes of rescue, solidarity, and charity. In this powerful image, we witness a man lying injured and naked on a riverbank while various characters pass him by without offering help. However, it is the eponymous Good Samaritan who stands out amongst them all. Dressed in distinctive attire including a turban and hat atop his horse's back, he extends compassion towards the wounded individual. The landscape surrounding them adds depth to the composition with its serene beauty contrasting against the urgency of their encounter. This thought-provoking artwork serves as both an exploration of morality and an invitation for viewers to reflect upon their own capacity for kindness. Through Lastman's masterful brushstrokes, we are reminded that justice can be found not only through luck but also through acts of goodwill. This timeless piece continues to inspire audiences today with its profound message about empathy and reward beyond material gain.
