The cloth is lifted from the Sabbath bread

Between two lit candles the man at the head of the table, in a dark suit, patterned tie and skullcap, draws a white napkin back from the braided loaves on the cloth; at his side the old man with the white beard raises a small cup to his lips, and cut-glass goblets stand filled before them. On Friday evening the Sabbath begins with the blessing over wine, the kiddush, and over two covered loaves of challah.
