Question Awsome site. I hope someone can help.

I've seen once a painting (or drawing) some years ago that I cannot seem to forget, yet I cannot recall any details about it that would help me experience it again. I suppose it was a parable of sorts. There were two groups of people dining. Some were healthy while the others obviously famished. Because of the time period, the rounded collars around their necks prevented the selfish diners from being able to feed themselves. Thus, they appeared sickly and starved. The non-selfish diners used their eating utensils to feed one another. Consequently, they were fat and healthy and happy. If any of you have experienced this beautiful piece of art, would you please do me the honor of posting some helpful info. Thanks, Decki

You might consider a visit to the Louvre on the internet and have a look at "The Wedding Feast at Cana" by Paulo Veronese which has a similar theme to the one you describe.
