Bird's-eye view of two large buildings, with a screw weight-lift
A cluster of roofed buildings (stables?) drawn from above, and a note on a weight raised by a screw
A loose bird's-eye view shows a cluster of roofed buildings set among smaller structures, with an open grid at the right; the transcription notes these as two large buildings, perhaps stables. Two further captions concern a mechanical apparatus and a weight raised by a screw, the apparatus given a dimension of braccia 4. The sketch is rapid and lightly drawn.

Two large buildings seen from above
A group of roofed buildings is drawn from a raised viewpoint, the larger blocks noted in the transcription as two large buildings—perhaps stables—surrounded by smaller sheds. An open ruled grid at the right suggests an adjoining enclosure or field.
Weight raised by a screw
A caption records an apparatus dimensioned at braccia 4 and, separately, a weight lifted by means of a screw. The notes point to a screw-driven lifting device rather than to the buildings drawn below.
Ruled grid beside the buildings
A regular diagonal grid is laid out to the right of the buildings, in the manner of a plotted plot of ground. It gives the loose view a topographical, plan-like character.
