A very interesting observation @Koen. It is quite possible that the illustrator has distributed the faces and thus the position of the nymphs in the section in this way. Then he probably changed his mind and moved the lying nymph further up because it fits better there. The nymph below stands free without another in the background. Otherwise the row of nymphs would have been visually "disturbed".
Some new bathing images I've found lately. Some look somewhat familiar.

Ok, sorry for duplicates. I did try to use the search but was not helpful.
Thanks.

Now I am worried to post anything anymore, but didn't find this picture here with any of the keywords. Maybe I don't know to use the search here.
Sorry if duplicate too.

Never mind. I also only recognized the illustrations. Then you can find them with the search function, otherwise not.
Your new find is quite interesting. It somehow reminds of illustrations in Quire 13.
Here is the link to the manuscript ( you can see the rest of the picture on the left ).

Don't worry, Scarecrow, I have been caught out by the same thing. People may use a link but fail to use the full title for the ms/reference
This illustration looks to me like the nymph is drinking from a vial. Do you see it that way, or do you see something else ?

I rather see a spoon with a never ending stream of liquid coming out of it, the mouth of the nymph is not touching the 'spoon handle', the nymph has her arms tucked behind her back, strange to say, what I mean to say is I see a nymph with arms bent behind her back looking at a spoon from which comes a stream of liquid - not that I would bet on this
I also wouldn't be too certain about this figure, it's very unclear and confusing. Especially the object, it almost seems like it is articulated. At the furthest part from the nymph, it looks like a rivet holds two halves of the oval together.
