The unframed hand-coloured illustration is centered on the tan page. Above it, near the top of the page, the text “The Green Sheaf” is printed in black ink in a large serif font. It’s followed by a centered horizontal line, then the text “No. 3” in a smaller font. Below this is the central image, which depicts green-coloured pages, stacked to stand like a wheat sheaf, tied together with a red ribbon. The artist’s monogram is visible on one of the pages, which are lined to indicate type, with a rectangular sketch indicating an illustration. Below the Green Sheaf icon, centered on the page, is the year, 1903, followed, in slightly smaller text, by “LONDON / SOLD BY ELKIN MATTHEWS, VIGO STREET, W.”
