Asher Brown Durand

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a rectangular piece of paper with handwritten text. The paper fills the image, with a thin white border around it. The left edge of the paper is darkened and speckled. The paper has several columns and rows of handwritten numbers and words in cursive. There are several numbers written vertically down the center of the paper, with columns of numbers on the right and left sides. Some words are written sideways. The handwriting is difficult to read. The numbers are written in a mix of digits and words. The paper has a worn and aged appearance. The image is titled "Accounts (from Sketchbook)" by Asher Brown Durand.
