About this work

A painted banquet scene shows a seated man in a red robe reaching for a wine cup, while a bearded ruler on a throne gestures above him. A sword hangs by a thread from the ceiling, and women and attendants in classical dress stand around a richly decorated hall with gilded furniture and vessels.
