Sketchbook with gray cardboard covers, held together by white spiral wire. The pages are of white wove paper, with a perforated edge and discoloration to the outside edges. The inside of the front cover bears scribbled marks in black pen. The outside of the back cover has an inscription in black ink which reads "July 1981 / Siena / Perigord." The inscription is written vertically. There is a blue stamp noting that the sketchbook was "Made In France," as well as a blue price sticker reading "F6.50." Twenty-three drawings, although some pages may have been removed. The drawings are dated in brown ink or graphite in the lower right corner. There are no drawings on the verso of the sheets. All the drawings are executed in watercolor with either ink or graphite framing rectangles applied over the watercolor. All the drawings depict landscapes.
