"Daniel in the Lions' Den" is a 1614-1616 painting by the Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens, which depicts the biblical story of Daniel, a prophet who was thrown into a den of lions by King Darius of Persia. The painting is renowned for its dramatic use of chiaroscuro and the emotional intensity conveyed through the lions' varied reactions and Daniel's serene composure. Rubens' mastery in rendering the textures of fur and human skin is evident in this work, showcasing his skill in capturing the interplay of light and shadow.

The story of Daniel, taken from the Old Testament Book of Daniel, Chapter 6, serves as an allegory of faith and divine protection, themes that were particularly resonant during the Counter-Reformation period in which Rubens was active. The painting reflects the Catholic Church's efforts to reaffirm the power of faith amidst the challenges posed by the Protestant Reformation.

Measuring 224.2 cm by 330.5 cm, "Daniel in the Lions' Den" is housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The work is a prime example of Rubens' Baroque style, characterized by its vivid movement, emotional intensity, and theatricality. This painting is particularly noted for its dynamic composition and the lifelike depiction of the lions, which range from menacing to quiescent, underscoring the miraculous nature of Daniel's survival.

As a significant work in Rubens' oeuvre, "Daniel in the Lions' Den" has been the subject of extensive art historical scholarship and is considered one of the artist's most powerful religious paintings. Its influence extends beyond the realm of art history, having been referenced in various cultural and religious contexts as an emblem of steadfast faith and divine intervention.
