The sketches are very rough, but could have been used in the selection or exhition of the first set of Venice etchings. The top row shows, from left to right, the etchings The Little Venice [238], The Palaces [223], The Beggars [190], LThe Little Lagoon [216]. The bottom row may show The Traghetto, No. 2 [233] and The Two Doorways [221] with one between them that is indecipherable.
