Please view the full size image at the Weiss Gallery site, as it is zoomable, and there are a lot of interesting details. One interesting aspect that caught my eye is the distinct lack of a goffered (pleated) front edge; or at least it is not visible in this image.

With thanks to Maggie Secara and Paula Marmor for posting the link to this image.
