EDITORS COMMENTS
Belshazzar's Feast" is a captivating and intriguing biblical scene depicted in this late 19th century illustration. The story is recounted in the Book of Daniel in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. Belshazzar was the last king of Babylon before its conquest by the Medes and Persians, and this illustration captures the moment of his downfall. The image shows Belshazzar and his courtiers, dressed in rich robes and adorned with gold and jewels, feasting and reveling in the grand banquet hall of the Babylonian palace. A large table is laden with an extravagant spread, while musicians play instruments and dancers entertain the guests. In the center of the room, a large hand, believed to be that of God, appears on the wall, writing mysterious words that no one can decipher. The scene is filled with tension and foreboding, as the guests react with fear and confusion to the appearance of the hand. Belshazzar himself is shown with a terrified expression on his face, as he calls for his astrologers and sorcerers to interpret the writing on the wall. The room is bathed in a dim, ominous light, adding to the sense of impending doom. The illustration is a stunning example of the artistic style of the late 19th century, with intricate detail and a rich color palette. The use of shadows and light creates a dramatic effect, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figure of the hand on the wall. The overall effect is one of awe and wonder, as the story of Belshazzar's Feast continues to captivate and inspire the imagination. This illustration is a powerful reminder of the biblical story and the historical significance of the events it depicts. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture and convey the stories and messages of the past, and to transport us to another time and place.
