Text on Light and Shade with a Small Inset Figure
A page of mirror-script prose; a very small sketch drawn inside a boxed passage
The leaf is almost entirely Leonardo's mirror-script, present but not transcribed in this bundle. One paragraph is boxed off, and within it a very small ink figure is drawn, apparently a diagram embedded in the running text. The dense prose, part of the treatise on painting and on light and shade, is accompanied by annotations in a later hand along the foot of the leaf.

Small inset figure within a boxed passage
A short passage near the middle of the page is enclosed in a drawn frame, and a tiny ink figure sits inside it. The sketch is too small to resolve but is set directly amid the surrounding text.
Untranscribed prose
The body of the leaf is filled with Leonardo's mirror-script, with later-hand notes at the foot. The bundle provides no transcription, so the wording is not given here.
