A horizontally oriented paper folio features dense rows of black and red script in gum tempera and ink. Three large, solid red circles are spaced across the horizontal center, framed by bold vertical red bands. Fine gold accents highlight individual characters within the text. The side margins contain fainter columns of script, and the number 61 is written in the lower-right corner.
