Grapes brought to Cesena; a Populonia map-sketch
Hanging grape bunches, a Populonia–Santo Leonardo jotting, and a note that ditch-diggers form a pyramid
A large drawing of hanging bunches of grapes on a stalk rises amid sketchy landscape hills. Around it Leonardo notes a cartographic sketch labelled Populonia and Santo Leonardo, a memorandum that grapes were brought to Cesena, and a remark that the number of the ditch-diggers is pyramidal. The jottings are brief memoranda set beside the sketches.
