The Prophet Daniel is one of the sevenOld Testament prophets painted by theItalian High Renaissance masterMichelangelo (c. 1542–1545) on theSistine Chapel ceiling. TheSistine Chapel is inVatican Palace, in theVatican City.

This particularfresco figure is painted second on the right from the side of theHigh Altar. Unlike many other paintings of the period, this portrayal makes no reference to the most famous event fromDaniel's life, that is his timein the den of the lions. Instead, Michelangelo shows Daniel reading a great book, which is held up by a muscular figure from below.
