About this work

In a wooded river landscape, the wounded, robbed traveler sits under a tree. A priest with an open book in his hand walks past the wounded man and offers no help. On the right, two figures in a rowboat. In the background, a chapel stands. Based on the biblical story in Luke 10:25-37. This print is part of an album.
