Provenance

The painting was part of an exchange between the artist and Sir Dudley Carleton (the first Viscount Dorchester). Carleton presented it to King Charles I.

The painting was later owned by the Duke of Hamilton, and it remained at Hamilton Palace in Scotland until 1882, when it was part of the Hamilton Palace sale. At some point between 1882 and 1919, the painting was bought back by the Hamilton family, only for the painting to be included in the final sale of Hamilton Palace in 1919. It was sold in 1963 to the 1st Viscount Cowdray. He then sold it to art dealer M. Knoedler, who sold it to the United States, which passed it on in 1965 to the National Gallery of Art, where it now hangs.^[1]

Subject

The subject is from the Book of Daniel, 6:1–28. Rubens modeled the lions on a Moroccan subspecies, examples of which were then in the Spanish governor's menagerie in Brussels. In 1618, he acquired more than a hundred pieces of classical sculpture, in exchange for this painting, eight others, and a sum of money.

The painting shows Daniel as a young man.^[2] However, according to Biblical chronology, Daniel would have been over eighty years old at the time of the incident.^[3]
