Description
Italiano: Il Convito di Baldassarre è un quadro (olio su tela, cm 202 x 297) che si trova a Napoli nel Museo di Capodimonte (inv. Q 263) nella Galleria Napoletana. Rappresenta il banchetto dato da Baldassarre, ultimo re di Babilonia, per come è narrato nella Bibbia al capitolo 5 del libro di Daniele. Baldassarre durante il banchetto fece portare i vasi d'oro e d'argento presi nel Tempio di Gerusalemme per berci con i suoi dignitari, le sue mogli e le concubine. Improvvisamente comparve una mano che scrisse sulla parete di fronte delle parole incomprensibili. Chiamati dapprima i suoi indovini, questi non furono in grado di interpretarle. Chiamato allora Daniele lui le lesse: era il giudizio di Dio su Baldassarre ed il suo regno, che gli annunciava che lui era stato giudicato e trovato colpevole, e che il suo regno era giunto alla fine e sarebbe stato diviso. Quella notte stessa Baldassarre fu ucciso e il suo regno preso dai Medi e Persiani.

Notes Questo quadro di Mattia Preti, ed il suo pandant il Convito di Assalonne (inv. Q 254), anch'esso a Capodimonte, vengono continuamente confusi fra di loro sia nei titoli che nei numeri di inventario, persino sul sito di Capodimonte e nel Museo sulla didascalia del quadro.
