Description: This painting depicts the biblical story of Belshazzar’s feast, as described in the Book of Daniel. Belshazzar, the king of Babylon, is shown seated at a banquet with his guests. They are feasting and drinking from sacred vessels that have been taken from the Temple in Jerusalem. Suddenly, a mysterious hand appears and writes on the wall in Hebrew. The writing is interpreted by Daniel as a message from God, foretelling the fall of Babylon.
