Decorative, flowing calligraphic lettering appears across the surface in various orientations, with ornate swirls integrated into the letterforms. Thin inked roads or dikes run between parcels and intersect at small bridge-like joins, while clusters of short parallel strokes indicate textured banks or marshy edges along some channels. Small rectangular and irregular shapes suggest built features or enclosed plots at a few junctions. The paper shows light aging with small brown spots and faint creases, and the overall drawing is composed of fine, consistent pen lines and delicate flourishes.
