following on from my other post on the 'medieval carpenter' You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. I'd like to open another thread closely related to that and the mermaid one. I deliberately didn't add it to the mermaid discussion (You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.) as I would like to draw the attention to the animals in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and not the mermaid/woman-fish hybrid.
Have a look at the animals in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. bottom right and compare with the image of folio 300v (The Hague, RMMW, 10 A 11, c.1475) in the attachment. I think the animals show a close resemblance even though I wouldn't dare an exact identification of the animals involved, however the principle looks convincing to me (and it is about animals in general and not particular ones)
f300v displays Adam and Eve (twice) which is described in more details in secondary interviews/blogs linked from the attached source . I aim to summarise these soon (if I get the feel and feedback that this is worthwhile and I am not completely on the wrong track).
How does the Mermaid/woman-fish hybrid fit in? As job found the You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.with a woman emerging from a fish (the latin inscription next to it says 'et homo natus in piscibus') this is also about human evolution, so would fit the assumption of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. displaying the joint human & animal evolution...?
With the description of general evolution and the emergence of humans and animals from the -green coloured- Earth in both instances, another common point with You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is debatable. The green, 'watery' base in both instances could display the evolutionary, 'swamp'-like (back)ground (much later a perfectly fitting German word would describe this as 'Ursuppe').
Again, any comments are much appreciated.
