Picture Composition for Class 6: Task 5.
Food & Floor Sitting Culture
As this task wraps up the picture composition for Class 6, let’s recap the basic rules again.
Quick Recap on Basic Picture Composition Methodology
We speak on the theme (what is happening), where the situation is occurring, who is in the image, what objects you can see and a summary statement.
Basic Picture Composition:
In this picture, we can see a family have lunch while seated on the floor. This could be either at home or on a picnic, because we do not see platters but just a food basket and food items. Behind the family is a lovely decorative vase with flower bunches.
It’s a family consisting of parents and their two children, a boy and a girl. They are seated on a large floor mat. The mother is serving the food and the family seems to be in a pleasant mood. It looks like sandwiches, fresh fruit, bottled juice and other food is being shared.
Intermediate Picture Composition:
Note: You can bring in depth with additional details on clothing and appearance of the family members. You could also talk about Asian cultures like Japanese who also used to have meals on the floor just like Indians. Read this article to know more!

Total Words: 195
Speaking Time: 1.5 to 2 minutes
“In many Asian cultures, including Indian, Japanese, and others, dining on the floor was a traditional practice deeply rooted in history and culture. Families would gather around low tables, carpets, or mats placed directly on the floor. This creates a homely and intimate communal dining experience.
Many traditional families follow this practice even today as it symbolizes humility, as sitting on the floor was seen as a sign of respect and equality among all members of the household. It also promoted closeness and harmony, allowing for face-to-face interactions and shared meals.
Additionally, eating on the floor is believed to have health benefits, such as aiding digestion and promoting good posture. This is asserted in Indian yoga as well. In Japanese culture, the practice of sitting on tatami mats during meals, known as “zashiki” style, emphasized simplicity and mindfulness in dining that is believed to give a sense of happiness along with satiety
Although modernization and urbanization have led to changes in such floor dining habits, this tradition remains significant in many Indian and Asian households and is often preserved during special occasions or cultural events, serving as a reminder of cultural heritage and values.”
