Moses: Passover -- Of nine men sitting around draped table, four wear conical hats, one wears hat, another wears headgear; one man extends knife in left hand to lamb (?) on plate; four men hold food to mouth; one cuts leg of lamb with knife in right hand; another gestures with right hand and extends left hand to lamb on plate; one extends left hand to bread; two sit on benches. On the table are two lambs on platters and six (?) loaves.
