"Daniël weigert de godheid Bel te eren" is an etching by Philips Galle from 1565-1579, depicting the biblical story of Daniel refusing to worship the Babylonian god Bel. The print shows Daniel standing before King Darius, who is seated on a throne, surrounded by courtiers. The scene is set in a grand, architectural setting. This engraving is a fine example of the detailed and intricate style of Northern Renaissance printmaking. The work is now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection.
