A scene in a coffee-house. Two men, one in a queue wig and with a pistol, another in club wig and with a sword, are fighting a duel while three frightened customers are trying to leave and another one cowers behind a settee next to a low table with coffee service on it. Behind another settee, a barmaid holds up her hands in horror. The gentleman with the pistol uses it to parry the sword thrusts of his opponent whose forehead is bleeding. A cat with an arched back and a dog barks look at the scene from the left. The room is decorated with a large mirro and shelves with wine glases, china bowls, and pitchers
