Red-Chalk Offset from the Facing Horse Study (25r)
A faint sanguigna impression transferred by contact with folio 25r
This near-blank leaf carries only a faint red-chalk (sanguigna) offset in its upper-central area, transferred by direct contact when the closed notebook pressed against the facing recto. The cataloguing caption identifies it as an impression picked up from folio 25r, which bears a red-chalk study of a horse's hindquarters and leg. No original drawing or writing was made on this side; the reddish ghost is simply a mirror-transfer of the neighbouring sheet.

Faint red-chalk offset of the facing horse study
A soft, blurred patch of reddish chalk sits in the upper-central part of the otherwise blank leaf. Its form is indistinct, consistent with a set-off (contact transfer) rather than a drawn image. The caption ties it to the horse study on the facing folio 25r.
