Inscriptions/Markings
Although the drawing has been lined, it is still possible, with a fiber optic light, to decipher the inscription on the verso: inscribed at lower left, presumably by the artist, in ink, "de Abdiÿ op den Eltenen Bergh". Inscribed on the inside of the lining at right, in a large script, in graphite, "Deeze... / ne... / door... / zijn... / Katy...". On the lining, in graphite, at center, "No ["o" in superscript] 13-13"; in another hand, "41" and "23"; and at lower right, "Domer".
