A weathered brown paper featuring a variety of architectural sketches and geometric studies, including perspective drawings and shapes like cubes and pyramids. Some sketches appear to be conceptual studies of buildings and structures, with visible construction lines and vanishing points. The paper shows signs of age with creases and some stains.
