A Banquet is Prepared
As I look at this photo I notice that while the table is carefully set, it also seems a bit informal - there are a variety of plate designs, the napkins are placed under the spoon and knife instead of under the fork, and there is no tablecloth.
These are things that usually happen only when family or good friends come together to share a meal. The dishes of food, ready to be passed around, lend an air of anticipation - the meal is about to begin.
This scene, carefully set, is a reminder that sharing a meal is more than simply eating at the same table.
