Script lettering in the upper left reads ‘La Bohème’, block lettering at the bottom reads ‘Metropolitan Opera’, and small text in the lower right corner reads ‘© 1978 Circle Gallery/Met Opera’. ‘Andrew Wyeth’ is signed in plate at the lower left of the image, and the poster is presented under glass in a metal frame.
