Peasant Repast with a Young Beggar

The composition is centred around a table laid with a large loaf of bread, a generous piece of cheese, some fish, and fruit. The still-life is contained within an oval defined by the hands of the dining companion. The young couple generously invite us to partake in the meal, one offering a carafe of wine, the other an appetizing plum.

Cipper painted several replicas of this scene with minimal changes.
