That's interesting and nicely done. A bit too busy for me, but that's not your
fault.
It would have been nice if you'd included the edge of the table, showing some
of the food and perhaps a knife or something breaking the edge. Still lifes of
this purpose were used not only to show off the patron's wealth and good taste,
but also to make a moral, allegorical point about the transitory nature of
wealth, power and earthly pleasure. To do this the painter often showed
something balancing precariously on the edge of the table, about to fall.

Shot at the The Henry Ford's holiday nights thingy last night, where historical
holiday scenes are presented. The hard spot lights on the food did not make for
great lighting but a moderate amount of processing helps.
