View of Orléans with the Cathedral (Basilique Cathédrale Sainte-Croix d'Orléans) visible on the horizon.

There is a pencil mark at the right edge, likely made by Talbot to identify which side was sensitized.

Along the lower edge of the album page, written in ink, the image is captioned "Orléans".

The reverse of the album leaf is blank.
