The entire work, front and back, is covered with Seille's unique handwriting and line drawings on paper collaged onto the wooden structure. The wooden base is actually the shipping crate Seille made and used to send the triptych to the Sackner Archive. The interior base is collaged with an original drawing, and the crate is so beautifully crafted that it serves perfectly as a base for the sculpture. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
