DescriptionA man wearing a cap, vest, and pants stands at an open door. The expression on his face indicates surprise. He holds a gun in the crook of his arm and a candle in his other hand. A dog is at his feet barking ferociously. An old, thin, white horse is tied to their door knocker. At left, two men hide behind a wall and snicker. Two cats fight on a wall. The moon is in the sky.
