"Belshazzar's Feast" by Frans II Francken is a 17th-century oil painting by the Flemish Baroque artist, known for his intricate cabinet paintings, historical scenes, and genre works. The painting depicts the biblical story of the feast of Belshazzar, the last king of Babylon, as recounted in the Book of Daniel. During the feast, a disembodied hand appears and writes on the palace wall, leading to the famous phrase "the writing on the wall," which foretells the fall of Belshazzar's kingdom to the Medes and Persians.

Frans II Francken (1581–1642), a member of the renowned Francken family of artists, was a prominent figure in the Antwerp art scene. His rendition of "Belshazzar's Feast" is characterized by its attention to detail, rich color palette, and the dramatic use of light and shadow, which highlights the opulence of the banquet and the terror of the moment when the divine message is revealed.

The painting is a prime example of Francken's skill in depicting complex narrative scenes and his ability to convey moral and religious messages through his art. It also reflects the cultural and artistic interests of the Counter-Reformation period, during which biblical themes were commonly used to express the power and judgment of God.

"Belshazzar's Feast" by Frans II Francken is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as an exemplary work of the Flemish Baroque period. It continues to be studied for its historical context, iconography, and Francken's distinctive style, which has contributed to the understanding of the artistic and cultural environment of early 17th-century Flanders.
