Banquet Piece with Ham, is paint by Willem Claesz. Head in 1656.
This " banquet" still life, in food and serving vessels are disposed on a table, demonstrates one of Willem Heda's specialties.
Heda paint a lot of pictures in this subject. Especially silver dinner service and food. It gives you a feeling of nobility.
In this picture, these dinner service are massed up, food just disposed there and there was a half glass of white wine. I feel like that these people are so rich and they don't respect to their food. Because these gentry don't really need to do anything to get these fancy food. I think this represent a epitome of the society at that time.
