Compassion embodied in The Good Samaritan: Jacob Jordaens' painting
The Good Samaritan stands out with an animated composition where sturdy figures and expressive gestures tell the biblical scene with intensity. Jordaens uses a warm palette, dominated by ochres and deep reds contrasting with touches of light that sculpt the faces and draperies; the pictorial paste, dense and tactile, enhances the physicality of the protagonists. The atmosphere combines dramatic tension and touching humanity, inviting the viewer to move between the generous man, the weakened victim, and the terrestrial background suggesting a universal moral story. This visual reading makes the scene both immediate and meditative.

Jacob Jordaens, master of Flemish Baroque
Jacob Jordaens is among the great Baroque painters of Flanders, heir to the Caravaggisti tradition and a contemporary of Rubens and Van Dyck, but with a more popular and down-to-earth sensibility. His work is characterized by powerful compositions, a keen sense of movement, and attention to textures — skins, fabrics, fruits — which give a physical presence to the subjects. Influenced by Northern realism and the dramatic energy of the Golden Age, Jordaens contributed to renewing religious and mythological themes by making them accessible, full of emotion and everyday truth. His paintings have marked Baroque iconography with their narrative strength and humanity.
