A faded cartographic rendering of Buffalo, New York from 1893 displays the city's grid pattern in warm tan and ochre tones, with the meandering Niagara River rendered in soft blue-green tracing the western edge. The map's aged paper stock and muted palette evoke the weight of historical documentation, while subtle hand-drawn details and text annotations give it the character of a period surveyor's work. 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.
