Where it works
Two black vultures from Audubon hunched over a deer's head on a green meadow, a wide plate set on a cream sheet with a typeset label. Dark and unsentimental, it suits a study, a hunting cabin or a hallway at 16×24 landscape in a black frame, beside his Common Raven.

Framing. A slim black or natural wood frame right to the plate edge; the plate's own margin frames the subject.
