This painting shows a scene of a wedding feast. The bride and groom are seated at a table in the center, surrounded by guests. The room is dimly lit, with only a few sources of light illuminating the scene. The artist has used chiaroscuro to create a sense of depth and drama in the painting. The contrast between light and dark creates a sense of tension and energy in the scene. The painting is held at the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister.
