The image shows an open notebook or sketchbook featuring a vibrant cityscape drawing on the right-hand page, and handwritten notes on the left. The cityscape is colorfully illustrated in what appears to be markers or similar media, with bold, expressive lines and blocks of bright colors. The image captures the essence of a bustling urban environment with buildings of varying heights and styles, scribbles suggesting greenery or vegetation at the lower part of the drawing, and a blue sky with abstract lines that could represent clouds or just be part of the artistic expression. The left-hand page has red and black markings at the top, potentially the remnants of a separate thought or artistic endeavor. Below this, there are handwritten notes in black ink, including what looks like a date ("Sept. 15. '08") followed by "NYC," possibly indicating the artist's location or the subject of the drawing on that date. Then there are further notes about a location ("at Cosmopolitan Club") and additional dates with shorthand for days of the week ("Sat 16 Sun 17 Mon") and another location or destination ("→ BOS"), which could possibly stand for Boston. The pages are well-worn, indicating use over time, and the notebook lies flat, suggesting it's frequently opened to these pages. The artwork and notes together provide a glimpse into the artist’s schedule, possibly related to travel or events, alongside a creative depiction of a city.
