david & JKP,
Thank you both for pointing these features out! I'd never noticed them...
To me it looks as if the person who added the yellow/brown paint tried to make the "splot" star-shaped to make up for the absent star.
Koen Gh,
sorry I hadn't noticed your question before: about the foot, I'm not too sure: Although I can see the similarities with a foot, I don't see the similarity to the way the Voynich artist depicts feet: there are many feet in various positions depicted in the VMS (nymphs in the "balneo" section in particular) but none of them seem to be shaped like that root, with the prominent ankle/heel and splayed toes look.
