Painting Description
"Belshazzar's Feast" is a celebrated painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in approximately 1635. This oil on canvas work, which measures 167.6 cm by 209.2 cm, is housed in the National Gallery, London. The painting depicts the biblical story of the feast of Belshazzar, drawing from the Book of Daniel, where the Babylonian king Belshazzar uses sacred vessels from the Temple in Jerusalem to praise the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone. Rembrandt's dramatic interpretation captures the moment when a divine hand appears and writes on the wall, leading to the phrase "the writing on the wall."
The artwork is renowned for its vivid depiction of light and shadow, a hallmark of Rembrandt's style, which adds to the drama and tension of the scene. The use of light not only highlights the opulence of the feast but also serves to illuminate the horrified expressions of the attendees as they witness the miraculous event. The painting is also noted for its accurate representation of the Aramaic script, which spells out the words "MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN," interpreted to mean that God has numbered the days of Belshazzar's reign, found it wanting, and will divide his kingdom between the Medes and Persians.
"Belshazzar's Feast" is considered a masterful example of storytelling through art and is a testament to Rembrandt's skill in conveying narrative and emotion. The work is a significant contribution to the Baroque period and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
