This 1565 engraving by Philips Galle, titled "Daniel fodrer dragen" (Daniel confronts the dragon), depicts the biblical story of Daniel's confrontation with the dragon. Galle’s detailed and dramatic rendering of the scene, with its architectural background and intricate figures, showcases the artist's skill in depicting biblical narratives in a visually engaging way. The print, now housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark, stands as a testament to the powerful visual storytelling tradition of the Renaissance era.
