"Feast of Belshazzar" is a notable painting by the Italian Baroque artist Andrea Celesti, who was active during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Celesti, born in Venice in 1637, was known for his dynamic compositions and dramatic use of light and shadow, characteristics that are vividly displayed in this particular work. The painting depicts the biblical story of Belshazzar's Feast, an event described in the Book of Daniel, where the Babylonian king Belshazzar holds a grand banquet using sacred vessels looted from the Temple in Jerusalem. During the feast, a mysterious hand appears and writes a cryptic message on the wall, which the prophet Daniel later interprets as a divine judgment foretelling the fall of Belshazzar's kingdom.

Celesti's rendition of this dramatic moment captures the opulence and decadence of the Babylonian court, with rich, vibrant colors and intricate details that highlight the luxurious setting. The artist's skillful use of chiaroscuro enhances the tension and drama of the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures and the ominous writing on the wall. The expressions of shock and fear on the faces of Belshazzar and his courtiers are rendered with remarkable realism, conveying the sudden shift from revelry to terror.

This painting is a fine example of Celesti's ability to blend narrative content with a strong emotional impact, a hallmark of Baroque art. "Feast of Belshazzar" not only showcases Celesti's technical prowess but also reflects the broader cultural and religious themes of his time, making it a significant work in the context of both his oeuvre and the artistic movements of the period. The painting is housed in various collections, with some versions and interpretations attributed to Celesti found in museums and private collections, underscoring its enduring appeal and historical importance.
