The Adoration of the Golden Calf 1539 by Lucas van Leyden 1494 – 1533 When Moses receives the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai, the waiting people become bored and lose faith in their god. Against all commandments, under the leadership of Moses' brother Aaron, they make an idol, a golden calf, around which they dance.
