The authorship of this painting has been much debated, but most scholars consider it to be by a Rembrandt pupil of the mid-1650s, with improvements made by the master himself. The 1656 inventory of Rembrandt's possessions lists "a painting of a Samaritan retouched by Rembrandt." He often assigned biblical subjects to his students as exercises in stagecraft as well as painting or drawing techniques.
