Technical notes:
The page is blank except for a smear of grey colour along lower edge of sheet (compare folio 15 verso; D00222). The colour smear indicates that the preceding page, subsequently torn out, bore a washed drawing; see the introduction to the sketchbook for an example of such a sheet now removed.
