Thanks for the references. So much has been written by so many people in such an unorganized way that it's not always easy as a newcomer to know which assumptions are deemed appropriate
So does this mean the manuscript was first intended to be uncolored? Or it was partially colored, and then at some places badly painted over?
This may explain why the forked tails were obscured in the water creatures (see the other thread I started). Maybe the second painter didn't find them appropriate.
