Belisario grabatua c1806 artista frantsesaren eskutik Baron Auguste-Gaspard-Louis Desnoyers (1779 – 1857), margolari bat, ilustratzailea eta grabatzailea; François Gérard margolari neoklasoko frantsesaren margolan baten ondoren (1770 – 1837), Pierre Picquet artista frantsesak egindako letrarekin (1780 – ?).
Grabatu honek Belisario jeneral bizantziarra irudikatzen du, mendean Justiniano I.a Ekialdeko Erromako enperadorearen menpe zerbitzatu zuena.; gida zauritua ezker besoan daraman eskale itsu bat bezala.
Bere gida Belisarioren sorbaldaren eta buruaren aurka gelditzen da, mutilaren ezkerreko hankaren inguruan inguratuta dagoen suge bat ikus dezakegu beherantz zintzilik; as Belisarius walks by the shoreline using his walking stick to guide him through the rough terrain, that has plants by his feet on his left and right sides as well as some rocks.
In the background we can see a building on the opposite bank of the river among some trees and in front of a mountain range; as well as a whisper of clouds in the sky.
Below the scene is the name of the piece in upper case letters BELISAIRE, and below that are Dedie a Son Excellence, Monseigneur; and below that the name CHARLES MAURICE TALLEYRAND, Miniestre des Relations Exterienres
Ohar: That painting and illustration are based on an unsubstantiated story that was made popular by 18th century Neoclassicist, which followed from an assassination attempt that was made against Emperor Justinian I, in which conspirators implicated Belisarius, which led to him being disgraced and stripped of all his honors for a period of 7 months.
