Daniel in the lions' den

The painting depicts a man in a white robe kneeling and praying in the midst of a group of lions. The surroundings are dark and cavernous, adding to the atmosphere of danger and tension. The man exudes calm and confidence, despite the menacing presence of the lioness and the lions surrounding him. Some of the lions are in passive positions, while others are alert or showing their teeth. There are also bones on the ground, suggesting that this is a scene from the biblical story of Daniel in the lions' den.

Petrus Paulus Rubens (1577-1639). Native German baroque painter. His work represents the perfect Baroque style, both in terms of composition (the interaction of colours, shapes and light) and themse. His paintings deviated aesthetically at the time – he often painted sensual female figures rationalistically. They are full of dynamics, colours and emotionally tense scenes. His work is independent, more personal and more informed than the creations of his time. For this reason, he significantly influenced his contemporaries.
