Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A tall, color-coded map plate shows an outlined landmass surrounded by blue water, with many irregularly shaped areas in contrasting colors. A legend appears at upper left, while a scale bar, faint grid, and small credit text appear elsewhere on the page. The title and a short subtitle are printed above the map.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.
