The focal point of the composition is an exquisite ham, perfectly glazed and glistening under the soft light that filters through a nearby window. Its succulent texture seems almost tangible, tempting our taste buds. Claesz's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element carefully arranged on the table.

A freshly baked bread roll sits invitingly beside a dish overflowing with luscious fruits, creating an enticing contrast between warm tones and vibrant colors. The inclusion of various vessels - from flagons to ewers - adds depth and richness to the scene, suggesting a sense of abundance and indulgence.
