The elder raises the silver kiddush cup

Closer now, the old man with the white beard and black skullcap holds up a silver cup on a slender stem at chest height and looks straight ahead with a grave face; the candle burns beside him, and the folds of the curtain close off the room behind. The cup appears to be the kiddush cup, over which the head of the household blesses the wine at the start of the Sabbath.
