"The Feast of Herod" is a painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Sir Peter Paul Rubens, created in approximately 1635–1638. This work of art depicts the biblical story of the beheading of John the Baptist, as recounted in the Gospels of Mark and Matthew. The scene takes place during a banquet held by Herod Antipas, where Salome, Herod's stepdaughter, performs a dance that pleases Herod so much that he promises to grant her any wish. Prompted by her mother, Herodias, who bore a grudge against John for denouncing her marriage to Herod, Salome asks for John the Baptist's head on a platter.

Rubens' mastery of dynamic composition and his ability to convey dramatic intensity are evident in "The Feast of Herod." The painting is characterized by its vivid portrayal of the figures' emotions, the opulent setting, and the rich, contrasting colors typical of Rubens' work. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail in the luxurious costumes and architectural elements, contribute to the overall impact of the scene.

As a prominent figure in the Flemish Baroque movement, Rubens was known for his grand historical and mythological paintings. "The Feast of Herod" exemplifies his skill in translating complex narratives into compelling visual stories. The painting not only reflects Rubens' artistic prowess but also serves as a cultural artifact that offers insight into the religious and social contexts of the 17th century.

"The Feast of Herod" by Rubens is held in high esteem among art historians and is considered an important work within his oeuvre. It is housed in the National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
