A vertically oriented vellum page depicts two thin, reddish-brown ink borders framing an empty center. In the top right corner sits a small handwritten number. Faint, muted watercolor shapes of trees show through the warm, off-white surface from the reverse side. Golden-edged leaves are visible along the right side of the bound volume.
