- Signed, lower right: Mar [19]47, R. Davison.
- Three costume designs for the country couple and the coquette disguised in Ruth Page's ballet, Les petits riens. These designs are signed and dated after Ballet for America, the company for which the ballet was produced, ceased activities. They are meant, presumably, as a record of the designs rather than as working sketches.
- Three figures full-length, facing front; couple at left with two hands joined and arms raised above heads.
- Male figure at left, is finer representation of design *MGZGA Dav R Pet 4. Figure in disguise at right is finer representation of design *MGZGA Dav R Pet 5.
- Female figure at left wears blue fitted bodice with short tutu skirt of multicolored strips of fabric; short sleeves same effect as skirt; headpiece of multicolored pieces; pink tights.
