This black and white print represents a large central field of black ink that has hard edges on three sides (upper left, lower left, lower right). Beyond these edges the white paper can be seen in the upper left, lower left, and lower right corners of the image. The black ink extends into the upper right corner of the image, although there are white lines and marks in that area, as well. The three corners where the white paper is revealed are lined and dotted with black ink.
