Title
TOP: A Group of People Talking before the City Wall at the Edge of the Seine (Vor der Stadtmauer am Seine-Ufer diskutierende Menchengruppe), originally sheet 2 of Views of the Seine (Vues de la Seine)
BOTTOM: In the Adriani Villa (In der Villa Adriani), originally sheet 11 in the folio First Folio of Regions and Old Fragmented Edifices (Erste Folge von Gegenden und Bruchstücken Alter Gebaeude)
Artist
Franz Edmund Weirotter
Physical Description
Left edge displays small tears, indicating former binding.
TOP IMAGE. A river tapers from the bottom edge to the right. In the right bottom corner a row boat is steered by a man standing with a pole, while a passenger sits astern. A thatched-roof structure, possibly multiple structures, dominates the left-hand side of the composition, while a windmill - identifying the scene as taking place in Holland - appears in the bottom right distance. Other structures line the left riverbank in the right corner, perhaps denoting a village. Boulders fill the bottom left.
BOTTOM IMAGE. A river fills the bottom right corner, along whose banks two or three travelers - one standing, one sitting, a third possibly lying down - rest with their gear. Boulders fill the bottom left, covered with scraggly vegetation. The largest boulder is topped by a nearly dead tree, while to the distant left another boulder is topped with another pair of travelers, one figure standing and pointing with walking stick, a second at his feet.

Title
The Annunciation
Artist
Juan de Valdés Leal
Physical Description
An angel, draped with a flowing red mantle, descends on the left from a bank of clouds. He holds a scepter and twisting scroll in his left hand while he points with his right toward a white dove encircled by a halo of light that descends toward a woman dressed in long robes and a veil. She sits, holding a book open on the lectern before her, and draws back slightly with her right hand raised and her eyes downcast. Six cherubim sit above on the edge of the cloudbank, which opens to reveal a male figure barely visible in the blinding light that fills the cloud.
