Morten St George Theory

[Morten St. George]

The VMS figures are within barrel-like containers.

The one on the right is an illuminated initial. Illuminated initials only occasionally show craftsman. They are not specifically tied to any particular kind of scene. They can be anything.

I don't know why you are equating a barrel- or loge-like container with a large initial "G".

JP, I was only referring to a small upward protrusion from the middle of the hats worn by all three of the depicted persons. It has nothing to do with barrels or the letter G. Do you need glasses? I use a magnifying glass to cut down on errors due to poor eyesight.
