Cartridge and Charge for Artillery Engines
A cartridge or basket in four folds, filled with fine material
The sheet's drawings are labelled 'tormenti' (engines of war), one marked 'fine' (fine material) and the last captioned as a 'cartoccio o corbello', a cartridge or basket built in four folds and filled with fine material. The dark ink sketches show graduated bars and shafts ending in wrapped round charges. The faint script and circle diagram elsewhere on the leaf are show-through from the facing folio, not additional text of this page.
