determine if this idea could be extended to paintings featuring family meals.
The results of this study might help illustrate why certain kinds of foods were
painted.
(The researchers examined 140 paintings of family meals painted from the
years 1500 to 2000. These came from five countries: the United States, France,
Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands. The researchers examined each painting
for the presence of 91 foods, with absence coded as 0 and presence coded as
1.
For example, when one or more onions appeared in a painting, the
researchers coded it as 1.
Then they calculated the percentage of the
paintings from these countries that included each food.
Table 1 shows the percentage of paintings with selected foods.
The
researchers discussed several findings. First, some paintings from these
countries included foods the researchers had expected. Shellfish were most
common in the Netherlands' (Dutch) paintings, which was anticipated as
nearly half of its border touches the sea.
Sécopd, some paintings did not
include foods the researchers had expected. Shellfish and fish each appeared
in less than 12% of the paintings from the United States, France, and Italy
although large portions of these countries border oceans or seas. Chicken, a
common food, seldom appeared in the paintings. Thipd, some paintings
included foods the researchers had not expected. For example, among German
paintings, 20% of them included shellfish although only 6% of the country
touches the sea.
Also, lemons were most common in paintings from the
Netherlands, even though they do not grow there naturally.

Researchers have discussed how art portrays clothing and social settings.
One study was conducted to determine if this idea could be extended to paintings featuring family meals.
The results of this study might help illustrate why certain kinds of foods were painted.

研究者たちは、芸術がいかに衣服や社会背景を描いているかをこれまで議論してきた。
この考えが、家族の食事を描いた絵画にまで当てはまるのかどうかを確かめるために、ある研究が行われた 。
この研究の結果は、ある特定の食べ物が描かれている理由を説明するのに役立つかもしれない。

featuringは、「〜の特徴を描く(描写する)」という意味があるはずです。
