The map contains a dense array of tiny printed place marks and short lines indicating settlements and roads, and numerous small brown hill symbols clustered across the pale yellow region. The coastline is irregular and detailed with darker ink along the shore and a narrow band of darker shading where the land meets the sea. Fine grid lines and faint rectangular panels are visible over the sea area, and the entire map is framed by thin double border lines in red and black. The paper has a central vertical fold and a horizontal fold near the bottom, and there is slight aging discoloration near the center fold.
