About Daniel in the Lions' Den
Daniel in the Lions' Den is a 1615 painting by the Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens. The subject is from Daniel. Rubens modeled the lions on a Moroccan subspecies, examples of which were then in the Spanish governor's menagerie in Brussels. In 1618 he acquired more than a hundred pieces of classical sculpture, in exchange for this painting, eight others and a sum of money. Has 8 lions in the picture. The other "lion" is a rock statue that the lion to the far left is protecting. Although the painting shows Daniel as a young man, according to the biblical chronology Daniel would have been over eighty years old at the time of the incident depicted.About the Posters
