Description49 finely cut silhouettes within the pages of a blank page book entitled "Poesie". For the most part, these are country scenes, animals in court dress and hunting scenes and a few florals. One animal head is torn off and a few fine lines are broken. The silhouettes are possibly based on the opera "Fra Diavolo"
