This paper is mostly blank, but there are faint marks scattered across it. A few small, smudged lines and dots appear in the top left and center, like quick sketches or accidental stains. The edges show signs of age, with some brown discoloration and a few numbers written in the bottom right corner. The marks look like they might be sketches or notes, but they’re too faint to tell what they’re supposed to be. The paper itself is framed in a simple wooden border, giving it the look of an old drawing or study. If you’re curious about old sketches like this, look up Museum of Ethnography.
Teodor Bogoi would sketch with ink on scraps of paper whenever he rode the tram to Afumați, a village outside Bucharest where the winter air turned the fields to lace.
