Oven drawing with lettered dimensions, a profile head and spelling drills
A dimensioned oven in pen and red chalk, a small profile head, and the word fatto spelled three ways
The dominant drawing, in pen and red chalk and set inverted, is a study of the oven with its parts lettered a, n, o, c, t and given dimensions in fractions and in braccia. Below, in pencil, is a small head in profile beside a fragmentary line beginning "Tell me if ever". The same leaf carries a spelling exercise trying the word fatto three ways (fato, facto, fatto). The sheet is stained and several jottings remain faint.

Oven with lettered points and dimensions
The oven is drawn with its points labelled a, n, o, c, t and measured: a n is 2/3, o a is 2/3, c o is 1/4, and t c is 1 braccio. It continues the oven series of the adjacent leaves.
Dimensions in fractions and braccia
The lettered points are related by fractional measures (2/3, 1/4) and one measure of a full braccio, working out the proportions of the oven.
Profile head with a fragmentary line
At the foot, drawn in pencil, is a head in profile accompanied by an unfinished phrase, "Tell me if ever …".
The word fatto spelled three ways
Among the notes the writer drills a single word in three spellings, fato, facto, fatto, a small orthographic exercise.
