A woman in what today looks like a Santa Claus outfit sprinkles salt on to the title food and stares seductively at the viewer in another of his paintings. In one of the many self-portraits of this artist of The Doctor's Visit, he sits cross-legged next to a pewter jar playing the lute. A child wearing a paper crown and standing on a bureau takes a sip of wine in his Twelfth Night. In another painting, a little girl in yellow holds a doll of John the Baptist given to her on the title Feast of St. Nicholas.
