About the piece
Painted around 1620 by Domenico Fetti, this work illustrates the Parable of the Good Samaritan with a focus on compassion and movement. The composition features a vibrant interplay of light and shadow, with the central figures set against a backdrop of wind-swept trees and a heavy sky, showcasing Fetti's uniquely painterly and emotional style typical of the Venetian school influence.
