Den barmhjertige samaritan betaler værten 1825 - 1873

Wilhelm Marstrand's "Den barmhjertige samaritan betaler værten" (The Good Samaritan Pays the Innkeeper) depicts a scene from the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan. The artwork, created between 1825 and 1873, shows a moment where the Samaritan, dressed in a white tunic and cloak, pays the innkeeper. The innkeeper is standing at the entrance of the room, while the wounded man lies on a bed in the background. This scene highlights the Samaritan's kindness and willingness to help those in need. The painting is part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark.
