Painting Description
"Daniel in the Lion's Den" is a renowned engraving by the French artist Gustave Doré, created as part of his illustrations for the Bible. The work is based on the biblical story found in the Book of Daniel, where Daniel is thrown into a den of lions by King Darius of Babylon as a punishment for praying to God in defiance of a royal decree. Doré's illustration captures the dramatic moment when Daniel, depicted with an aura of divine protection, is surrounded by the ferocious beasts who, miraculously, do not harm him.
Gustave Doré (1832–1883) was a prolific and influential illustrator, printmaker, painter, and sculptor, whose works often depicted scenes from literature, religion, and history with a rich and imaginative flair. His illustrations for the Bible, completed in the 1860s, are among his most famous and enduring works. They were widely disseminated and have had a significant impact on the visual culture of biblical narratives.
Doré's "Daniel in the Lion's Den" stands out for its masterful use of light and shadow, which emphasizes the contrast between the innocence and faith of Daniel and the potential violence of the lions. The engraving is characterized by its fine detail and dramatic composition, hallmarks of Doré's style. This image, like many others by Doré, has been reprinted in various editions of the Bible and has influenced the way generations of readers envision this ancient story. It remains an iconic representation of the theme of divine protection and faith under duress.
