Notes

The open-topped vase sketchily drawn here has a flared base and is decorated with gadrooning. No antique source is known and it could be either ancient or a modern invention. The drawing is consistent in style with most of the others on the page, which all date from the codex’s second phase of production.

Ashby 1904, p. 71
