A pretty young maid seated at a table is flirting with a footman leaning with his arms on the back of her chair. She is petting a cat; two kittens are playing in a basket on another chair. In the background, another maid, busy mending a garment, looks at them with disapproval and jealousy. Behind on the wall hangs a shelf with plates, a warming pan and a placard (playbill?) entitled, "The Rival Maids."
