A series of wood-engraved depictions of Rana temporaria (the common frog). Six of these are printed, in variant shades of green, on sheets of Nepalese paper shaped and textured in the form of a Canarium tree leaf (see artist's note, below). The embossed texture was provided by pressing the paper from a specimen of the leaf. The reverse of each sheet is tinted in a varying shade of orange. The six leaves are tied together (at the base) with a tassel of white string, of unidentified fiber. An additional leaf, also tinted orange on the reverse (but much larger) encloses the fan. It bears three additional wood-engraved frogs, along with the title, artist's name, and numbering (in graphite).

"The large leaf I had printed for my frog 'fan' ... is probably Canarium, from Brunei. I made the prints by rolling ink directly onto the leaf & printing onto damp Nepalese paper to give the embossing. The leaf is very thick & leathery so withstands that kind of treatment."--Letter from the artist to David Burnett, August 26, 2012.
