Album 2, Leaf 29

The folded sheet in the upper section shows a narrow rectangular frieze, of which there is another more detailed version in red chalk in the first Karlsruhe album (leaf 14). Unrelated in terms of content but aimed at making the best possible use of available space on the album leaf, the upper relief has been combined with an ornament drawing in red chalk.
