EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Benjamin West's engraving of "Belshazzar's Vision, Daniel V, 26". The image is part of a private collection and was originally created as an illustration for the book "Historic Illustrations of the Bible principally after the Old Masters" by Fisher in approximately 1850. The scene depicted in this artwork is taken from the biblical story found in the Book of Daniel. Belshazzar, the king of Babylon, is seen witnessing a mysterious vision during a lavish feast he hosted. The inscription on the wall foretells his downfall and signifies divine judgment upon him. West's skillful interpretation captures both the grandeur and tension within this pivotal moment. Through intricate details and masterful use of light and shadow, he brings to life Belshazzar's astonishment and trepidation as he contemplates his impending doom. This engraving serves as a testament to West's talent as well as his deep understanding of historical events portrayed in religious texts. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into ancient narratives that continue to resonate with contemporary audiences. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its significance in preserving important biblical stories through visual representation.
