Angular tower and decorative sketches
A tiered ink structure noted as a corner tower, over faint grey-pencil architectural lines
In ink Leonardo draws a tall tiered structure — a broad base, projecting cross-arms and a small square finial at the top — noted as an angular (corner) tower, with faint grey-pencil architectural lines showing through behind it. The sheet is also described as bearing decorative designs. The drawing is lightly executed and the folio carries no transcribed text.

Sketch of an angular tower
A tall tiered structure is drawn in ink: a wide base, projecting cross-arms, and a small square finial at the top, identified in the notes as an angular (corner) tower.
Faint architectural underdrawing
Behind the ink figure, faint grey-pencil lines show through, suggesting a larger architectural setting sketched before the pen drawing.
Decorative designs
The folio is noted as carrying decorative designs; only slight ornamental marks appear alongside the main tower figure.
