Transcription Notes:
The German sentence in the middle needs to be transcribed [[image]] is a pencil-hatched drawing of a cottage with a tall, piqued roof as tall as the cottage itself, with a fireplace and chimney attached on the left that stretches taller than the pointed roof, above which fly two birds. The cottage door is on the left side, flanked by a tall vertical window as well as three square ones above. In the foreground is sketched a raised path leading toward the cottage door, with two large pots of flowers on the right. A roof drain pipe is attached to the wall to the left of the door, leading to an open circular vat below.
