EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection depicts a pivotal moment in history - "Cyrus throws Daniel's prosecutors into the lion's den". The image showcases King Cyrus of Babylon, who had ordered the execution of Daniel, throwing his prosecutors into a pit filled with hungry lions. As they are immediately devoured by the ferocious beasts, both Cyrus and Daniel watch from the edge of the pit. The print is part of a larger series titled "History of Daniel, Bel and the Dragon" which is beautifully expressed through intricate engravings and accompanied by an explanatory text in Latin. Created by Philips Galle in Antwerp during 1565 or 1579, this particular artwork measures 201 mm in height and 248 mm in width. The intensity captured within this scene is palpable as it highlights both courage and divine intervention. It serves as a reminder of Daniel's unwavering faith and God's protection amidst adversity. This historical event has been immortalized through Galle's masterful engraving technique on paper. As you gaze upon this remarkable print, let your imagination transport you to ancient times when kings ruled with absolute power and individuals faced unimaginable trials. Feel inspired by Daniel's resilience and strength as he triumphs over his adversaries while being watched over by King Cyrus himself. This extraordinary piece offers not only visual delight but also invites contemplation on themes such as faith, justice, and divine providence that transcend time itself.
