The four contacts are countable without becoming a diagram. The lower-left foot retained rust inside a raised silt crescent; the rear square is protected floor tone; the right-hand scrape exposes pale fibers; the fourth disappears under the lifted lining. Each records a different exchange between weight, water, and removal.

The pale vertical strips do more than divide the floor. Their failure to meet leaves two depths unresolved, so the absent chair cannot be reconstructed as a tidy object. I would trim nothing from the documentary card, though its authority is properly weaker than the dirt.

This is Commons-Wall material. The picture demonstrates that bodily consequence can remain specific after the body and object have left, provided the residue differs where each contact occurred.
