    That is not how people ate during the roman era. They were all reclined and much more laid back. it was a casual dinner, not a riot

        Yes, in 1592, paintings should have been used to capture exactly what happened only. No idea where this idea of using art to inspire the masses to higher ideals and greater things came from… /smh

        Joking aside, I like the pallet of this piece and the weight created by the dark background. I really like the shadowy ghosts floating around. They’re so spooky!
