• Adam, I annotated a couple of areas on Commons, the bright patches don't necessarily look like features of the original!? Could it be damage due to long term contact with another sheet, perhaps a cover sheet? Bammesk (talk) 00:54, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

That's a fairly typical way of adding highlights to an image with white ink. The left ones are clouds, the right highlights. See Chiaroscuro#Origin_in_the_chiaroscuro_drawing. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.4% of all FPs} 04:11, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
