Large-scale surface density around Palomar 14. The contour levels range from 3σ to 20σ above the background density in logarithmic steps of 1σ each. The direction of the Galactic center and of the predicted proper motion by Lynden-Bell & Lynden-Bell (1995) are indicated by the solid and dashed arrows, respectively.
