A bird's-eye view of a formal garden, in dark ink on yellowed paper. Above the design reads 'Berseaux couvers de charmier.' A high rectangular wall of trimmed hedges encloses an interior hedge. For the shape of the inner hedge, imagine an X, then trace around it, curving the line at the intersection and ends of the X. The hedges are pierced with arched tunnels to allow two paths, one horizontal and one vertical, to meet in a fountain court in the center of the garden. The fountain is encircled with eight arched arbors sheltering benches; curving beds of plants and potted topiaries lead out to smaller fountains that sit inside the ends of the X. Below the design, at left, 'D. Marot fec:'. At right, 'avec Privilegie. 11'. At the top of the page is a detail of another garden design with curving plant beds and potted topiaries. The plants are depicted with delicate detail, and squiggling lines suggest the texture of the hedges.

A watercolor study for four garden designs drawn in perspective. All four designs are concentric squares featuring two large X’s bound by a square at their center. Top left: An outer edge of light green grass surrounds low square hedges alternating in light and dark green. The hedges total five on each side for a total of sixteen. Inside the hedges is another border of grass surrounding two yellow X’s with red fill and a black diamond at center. A walkway surrounds the garden and is bordered by a tall hedge in the background. Top right: Alternating small red and green rectangular plant beds surround the outer edge. A light green hedge of greater height than the surrounding beds pops up inside. The hedges are divided at each center point. At the same height two wooden X’s are bound by a wood square then red square. The X’s are filled with black and a red diamond at center. Bottom left: Alternating red and black rectangles surround the outer edge. Inside a gray walkway cut through with a red line at the center of each side. Each red line connects to a red box at the center that surrounds two white X’s filled with black. Bottom right: A narrow square of grass with equidistantly planted sphere-shaped hedges form the outer border. A gray border and two large gray X’s are at the center of the garden filled with light green grass.

A pencil drawing of a walled garden with five tall conical evergreen trees in a row. Short walls surround the garden forming a rectangular shape with an opening in the front. A set of stairs lead from the right to a platform in front of the garden. Two curved walls jut out from either side of the entrance. A half circle shaped bench is nestled perfectly inside each wall. A walkway leads to the center of the garden and ends at a sculpture of a lounging figure. Another curved bench is set against the right wall. The four corners are filled with grass. The top of the wall is lined with what appear to be small dome-shaped bushes. Faint pencil gridlines can be seen throughout the drawing.

Black ink perspective drawing of a courtyard with a square at the center. Three trees fill the foreground planted equidistantly in a row. They are seen at a slight angle with each tree appearing shorter giving the illusion of distance. The leaves are drawn in detail, each one distinct from the next with varied short black lines creating the illusion of light and dark. The leaves are so dense there is no definition in between the tops of the trees. The trees project dark shadows filling the left bottom corner. Seen through the tree trunks to the center of the courtyard is a circle of grass. It extends from the center to the right side of the drawing. Inside the grass is a square of stone slabs surrounding a short stone wall. Over two dozen trees continue in the background forming a square around the courtyard: the leaves forming a dense hedge like structure. The trees are planted in two rows evenly spaced forming a walkway. The leaves overhead create a shaded area.
