This is a drawing of four religious scenes. The first scene shows a group of figures within an oval frame labeled "S. URSULA CVM SOCIAB" and dated "21 Octob." The second scene features a solitary figure holding a jar near crucifixes, labeled "S. MARIA SALOME" and dated "22 Octob." The third scene presents a seated figure looking up towards the sky, labeled "S. SEVERINVS EPVS" and dated "23 Octob." The fourth scene depicts a standing figure holding a bishop's mitre and crosier, as an angel watches from above, labeled "S. MAGLORIVS EPVS" and dated "24 Octob." The drawing is done in delicate linework and laid out in a grid format on a plain background.
