The Good Samaritan by the French academic painter Aimé Morot presents a powerful interpretation of the biblical Parable of the Good Samaritan from the Gospel of Luke. Morot chose a dramatic, realist style influenced by 17th-century Spanish art to depict the moment of compassionate aid, focusing closely on the two life-sized figures — the aged Samaritan supporting the wounded traveler and guiding him with the help of a donkey. Exhibited at the 1880 Salon des Artistes Français where it won a medal of honour, Morot originally executed the work on an even larger canvas but later trimmed it to heighten the intimate and direct encounter between helper and victim. The painting’s vigorous naturalism and emotional clarity reflect the artist’s academic training and his interest in truthful human expression.
