A woman in pale drapery bends forward over an ornate wooden chest, her long hair cascading downward in a moment of intense focus or curiosity. The composition uses warm golds and creams against deep blue architectural details, rendered in Crane's characteristic Pre-Raphaelite style with meticulous attention to classical drapery and interior ornamentation. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
