"Belshazzar's Feast" is a renowned engraving by the Dutch artist Jan Harmensz. Muller, created in 1594. Muller, born in Amsterdam in 1571, was a prominent printmaker and painter of the Dutch Golden Age, known for his intricate engravings and the influence of Italian art on his work. This particular engraving is based on the biblical story of the same name, found in the Book of Daniel, which recounts the tale of the Babylonian king Belshazzar who holds a feast using sacred vessels looted from the Temple in Jerusalem, only to witness a divine hand writing on the wall, foretelling his doom.

The artwork captures the dramatic moment of the feast, with a rich display of expressions and gestures among the attendees as they react to the mysterious writing. Muller's mastery of the engraving medium is evident in the intricate details of the figures' clothing, the opulent interior, and the play of light and shadow, which adds a sense of depth and foreboding to the scene. The composition reflects the influence of Muller's teacher, Hendrick Goltzius, and the Italianate style that was fashionable in the Northern Renaissance.

"Belshazzar's Feast" by Jan Harmensz. Muller is not only a testament to the artist's technical skill but also serves as a cultural artifact that reflects the period's interest in biblical subjects and the moral lessons they were thought to impart. The work is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors alike and is considered one of Muller's most significant contributions to the field of engraving. It remains an important example of Northern Mannerism and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
