Part of a Mechanism and a Building Facade
A pen mechanism that continues on the next leaf, above a faint chalk elevation
Across the top of the leaf, in pen, is part of a mechanism - a horizontal shaft set with small fittings - which the catalogue notes continues onto the adjacent leaf. Below it, drawn faintly in red chalk, is the elevation of a building facade. No transcribed text accompanies the drawings.

Part of a mechanism continuing on the next leaf
A horizontal shaft or bar carrying several small projecting fittings runs across the top of the sheet in pen. The catalogue records that this mechanism continues onto the adjacent leaf.
Faint elevation of a building facade
In the centre, in pale red chalk, is the front elevation of a building with tiers of openings. The sketch is faint and summary, showing the massing of a facade rather than architectural detail.
