Are the illustrations in 66r and 116v related?

bi3: actually I think that's rather on topic. I also agree with the points made by Helmut.


The 116v nymph is somewhat in line with standard Voynich nymphs. The figure on 66r, however, is drawn by a different person. The belly is different, the arms are straight and square, the thighs are too long and narrow... The shoulders are twisted in a way unseen in any other nymph. As far as I am concerned, this could indeed be a patient, though there's no way yet to be sure.

The 116v figure on the other hand, looks almost a bit more polished and more fluent than some other nymphs, as if someone showed someone else how he was supposed to draw these women. It is much closer to a "proper" Voynich nymph. I see no indication of a medical context. Please undress but you can leave your hat on?
