"Belshazzar's Feast" is a painting by Frans II Francken, a Flemish Baroque painter known for his contributions to the genre of cabinet paintings and his work within the Francken family of artists. This painting depicts the biblical story of the feast of Belshazzar, as recounted in the Book of Daniel, where the Babylonian king sees the writing on the wall, foretelling the fall of his empire.

The artwork is a richly detailed composition, showcasing Francken's skill in illustrating complex, multi-figure scenes set within opulent interiors. It is characterized by its vivid portrayal of the sumptuous banquet and the dramatic moment when the divine hand writes the mysterious inscription "MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN," which Daniel interprets as a sign of the imminent end of Belshazzar's reign and the division of his kingdom.

Francken's interpretation of the scene is notable for its attention to the expressions of the figures, the luxurious costumes, and the use of light to highlight the supernatural event. The painting is a prime example of the artist's ability to blend narrative storytelling with the ornate style of the Antwerp school during the early 17th century.

"Belshazzar's Feast" by Frans II Francken is held in high regard for its historical and artistic significance, representing the themes of divine judgment and the transience of earthly power. The painting is an important work within Francken's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Baroque art in the Southern Netherlands.
