Historical-Criticism news
L'avorio era stato inchiodato su carta, che conserva ancora le tracce dell'intaglio (e su cui sono state numerate ad inchiostro le parti mancanti), supportata da uno strato di cartone pressato su cui è disegnata a matita una sorta di piazza esagonale dal cui centro si dipartono diagonali denominate ad inchiostro: "R.7:8" - "R:4:5." - rue des triois moulins" - "Rue 6.8 ".
