Brown Ink Inscription (Crossed Out) (from Sketchbook)

John William Casilear

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of white paper with a dark inscription. The inscription is located near the top of the paper and appears to be written in brown ink. The writing has been crossed out with a series of lines. The lines are drawn diagonally and horizontally across the text. The paper appears worn, with darker edges and visible creases. There are three vertical creases in the paper; one on either side and one in the middle. The paper has small dark spots scattered across it. The left edge of the paper appears uneven and has small dark marks along it.
