Das Gastmahl des Belsazar. Öl/Holz, rückseitig parkettiert.
Privatsammlung Aachen, in den 1950er bis 1970er Jahren gesammelt. Das biblische Buch Daniel (Kap. 5, Vers 1-25) schildert, wie der babylonische König Belsazar während eines Festes die aus dem Jerusalemer Tempelschatz geraubten liturgischen Gefäße entweihte. Daraufhin schrieb eine Hand das sprichwörtlich gewordene, Unheil androhende "Menetekel" an die Wand. Das Gemälde zeichnet sich durch seinen Figuren- und Detailreichtum sowie durch die magische, von Kerzenlicht festlich akzentuierte, streng komponierte Szenerie in einem nahezu dunklen Raum aus. Während das Thema des Gastmahls des Belsazar in der mittelalterlichen Kunst nur selten vorkommt, wurde es mit dem Aufkommen der Gegenreformation vermehrt aufgegriffen. So finden sich im späten 16. und 17. Jahrhundert z. B. in Flandern zahlreiche Varianten dieses Sujets, u.a. von der Antwerpener Malerfamilie Francken.
