The Good Samaritan
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Ferdinand Victor Eugene Delacroix is a captivating oil painting that transports viewers to the tranquil countryside of 19th century France. The artist's mastery is evident in this intimate scene, measuring 36.8x29.8 cm, where darkness and natural space blend harmoniously. Set against the backdrop of a moonlit riverbank, we witness an act of compassion and assistance. A caucasian figure stands by the side of the river, illuminated by the soft glow of nightfall. Beside them, an equine companion with blinkers gazes into the distance. Delacroix's romantic era brushstrokes evoke a sense of emotion and empathy as he portrays this timeless story from biblical parables: The Good Samaritan extending help to someone in need. With delicate posture and lifting gestures, these two individuals exemplify human kindness at its finest. The artist's attention to detail captures not only their physical presence but also their inner goodness. Through his skilled use of light and shadow, Delacroix creates depth within the artwork while emphasizing positive concepts such as love, care, and selflessness. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to Delacroix's contribution to French art during the mid-19th century European art movement. As we gaze upon "The Good Samaritan" we are reminded that acts of goodwill can transcend time and place – inspiring us all to be compassionate towards one another in our own lives.
