Annotated topographical view of Ora Island, probably in the Mediterranean
A coastal profile sketch of an islet off a coast behind, inscribed below 'Rock' (referring to one on its left) and 'Ora Island bearing about East'. The location is uncertain since there appears to be no island called Ora, at least in the Mediterranean which is where most of Mends's profiles in the collection were taken. It may however be the islet of Oro in the channel between Paxos and Anti-Paxos.
