A vertically oriented vellum page features two nested rectangular borders in reddish-brown ink, gold, and silver. A muted blue-gray wash covers the innermost space. Faint, ghostly shapes of a tall plant on our left overlap both frames. In the upper right corner of the inner frame sits a small, handwritten "94."
