JKP, don't forget that I work in the National Library of Spain and I have access to thousands of manuscripts. Of course I am convinced that if the VM is resolved someday it will be investigating manuscripts and cultural products of its time, and not with computers and algorithms.
For me, the big picture as you say, is the mentality of XV century people because the VM is only a product of the mankind of this time, very different from us. It's not about knowing that mentality but about internalizing it to understand it.
An example of this big picture and mentality is the astrolabe tapestry You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
Can you explain to me why the author mixed stars with flowers and herbs in constellations as if they were the same thing?
