Comment:
The peculiar structure in this drawing comes from coloured tissue paper that lay between the pages of the sketchbook. A combination of moisture and pressure caused the tissue paper to attach to the page and leave an imprint on it. Several of the drawings in this sketchbook have similar imprints.
