EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "The Good Samaritan" by Johannes Pieter de Frey, we are transported to a scene filled with compassion and humanity. The image depicts a wounded traveler arriving at an inn, where he is cared for by the Samaritan who has come to his aid. As the injured passenger is carried into the inn, we see helpers rushing to assist him. Their actions symbolize the power of empathy and selflessness in times of need. Through this act of kindness, de Frey reminds us of our duty to help those less fortunate than ourselves. The composition beautifully captures the moment as onlookers peer through the entrance of the inn, their figures increasing in number. Each face reflects curiosity and concern for the injured traveler's well-being. Meanwhile, our attention is drawn to the Samaritan himself, holding a purse in one hand while looking out towards us from a window above. Johannes Pieter de Frey's masterful brushwork brings life and depth to every detail within this print. The artist skillfully portrays not only physical injuries but also emotional wounds that may be hidden beneath each character's expression. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder that acts of goodness can have far-reaching effects beyond what meets the eye. It inspires viewers to reflect upon their own capacity for compassion and encourages them to extend a helping hand whenever possible.
