Daniel, a prominent figure in the Old Testament of the Bible, is renowned for his unwavering faith and prophetic insights during the Babylonian captivity. Despite being taken captive from his homeland, Daniel remained steadfast in his devotion to God, earning him favor and high positions within the Babylonian and Persian empires. Throughout the Book of Daniel, his courage in the face of adversity shines through, as seen in his refusal to compromise his faith and his willingness to endure trials such as the lions' den. Additionally, Daniel's remarkable ability to interpret dreams and visions, including those foretelling future events and the rise and fall of empires, further solidifies his legacy as a prophet of God. His story serves as an enduring testament to the power of faith and the steadfastness of those who remain faithful to God even in the most challenging of circumstances. Artist: Gustave Dore . Print Size: 9 3/4 ins x 7 3/4 ins Overall Size: 14 1/2 x 11 ins. 1870 Wood Engraving after the painting of Gustave Dore. Paul Gustave Dore (1832-1883), famous French illustrator, engraver, painter, and sculptor. He is best known for his highly imaginative and dramatic illustrations. At first he did his own engraving on wood, but as his success grew, his later work was done in collaboration with numerous engravers. His lively illustrations for some 120 books, including Paradise Lost, the Divine Comedy (1861), Don Quixote (1862), the Bible (1866), Balzac's Droll Tales, the works of Rabelais, the Fables of La Fontaine, and other classics, are still admired. He particularly excelled in weird, fantastic scenes. Less popular today are his works in painting and sculpture. This quality engraving originates from an 1870 art publication with a collection of plates, giving some idea of the variety as well as the power of Dore's genius.
