Stamped in black ‘CXXII – 43’ bottom right

Technical notes:
The outer edges of the page are stained from proximity to the leather overlaps under the paste-down inside the back cover (D40901). The final figure of the watermark appears to be a ‘1’ but might possibly be a ‘4’ (see the Introduction to the sketchbook).
