The painting is signed vertically in the lower right corner, ”B. Gussow.” The watercolor is presented under glass, surrounded by a wide maroon fabric mat and a narrow beige liner. The exterior frame is constructed of wood with a prominent burled veneer finish and features a decorative geometric gilt inner fillet.
