Rapid sketch of a mountainous landscape
Loose pen lines with an incidental calculation
The page is filled with quick, summary pen strokes that the e-Leo catalogue reads tentatively as a landscape: ridge-lines, jagged rocky peaks and sloping ground laid down with the fewest possible lines. Among the strokes a small group of figures is jotted, of which the transcription records 72, 5 and .501; further untranscribed numerals are also present. The drawing is faint and schematic rather than finished.

Summary landscape in a few strokes
Ridge-lines run across the upper sheet while jagged rocky peaks and a downward slope are indicated below with rapid, economical pen strokes. The e-Leo catalogue records the sketch as summary lines that may represent a landscape.
Jotted figures
A small cluster of numerals is written among the sketch lines; the transcription gives 72, 5 and .501. They read as an incidental calculation sharing the page with the landscape study.
