EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of "The Good Samaritan, Quirin Boel, 1660" by Quint Lox captures a profound moment from the biblical story of the Good Samaritan. The image depicts a man who has been robbed and left wounded on a desolate highway, while in the distance we see the connection being made between him and his savior. In this powerful scene, the Good Samaritan pours oil onto the wounds of the man, showing compassion and care despite their differences. The print beautifully portrays both the physical act of healing as well as the emotional connection that is formed between these two individuals. The composition skillfully highlights various elements of this narrative. On one side, we can see a priest and a Levite passing by without offering any assistance. Their indifference contrasts sharply with the actions of the Samaritan who goes out of his way to help someone in need. Additionally, there is an intriguing play with light and shadow as we observe them standing at different levels - on top of a hill versus down below where they were attacked. This particular print is part of Leopold William's collection called "Printcatalog Italian Paintings" which was compiled for Governor David Terniers in Southern Netherlands during that period. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only Quirin Boel's original painting but also its historical significance within art collections. Overall, Quint Lox's print invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as empathy, kindness, and humanity through this timeless biblical tale
