f82v: those rainbows

[MarcoP]

It is clear that rainbows and cloud bands were both artistic techniques used to help designate various deities. The illustration from Bodmer 49 in Post #71 is a sort of hybrid. A cloud band pattern in a rainbow-shaped construction.

*However* it is not a nebuly line.    It is a WAVY line.  Nebuly is defined as having crests and troughs that are bulbous.

Thank you, I think I understand your point.
Rainbows and nebuly lines appear as distinct elements in the earliest copies, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and You are not allowed to view links.

I think this could support the idea that the wavy line inside the bow in Bodmer 49 originated a conflation of the two motifs.
