All this is true. It is hard to understand where a true meaning is and where - just a casual detail. I only want to bring you to see the image from the point of view of the person which draws, and draws not too good, quite mediocre. When I try really hard, erase the wrong lines with an eraser, when I redraw from an already existing drawing, I get a pretty good picture. But if someone asks me to sketch a drawing quickly and without corrections, it will look just awful, although not as awful as in the VMs. I love to draw since childhood, but I'm not a professional artist, so my abilities haven't developed and my skills haven't been honed. I have about the same impression of the manuscript illustrator. It can be seen that he/she has the makings of drawing, but he draws rather casually, in places - very casually. The same goes for applying paints. Who knows, if he had/she tried, it might have turned out much better. It seems to me that his/her main goal was to have time to depict all the details he/she needed, and these are definitely not palms or legs. Now we can say without a doubt that the important detail in the manuscript is water or some kind of liquid, pools, barrels and pipes occupy a significant part of the manuscript, including the Zodiac part and the Rosette map.
I'll give one example, a detail of which has gone unnoticed. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. contains a diagram with 4 human figures. In addition to the clothes of these people and the things they hold in their hands, I was attracted by one detail - their (human) directions. It actually looks like a mess, these directions would look random if not for the direction of the fountains, which are placed exactly in the same direction as the figures. Personally, I don't know what that might mean. The version about the four tides of the equinoxes here seems the most realistic, but what do mean directions?
Quote:As for the lack of a serpent and biblical imagery, I agree, it is not there. If we were not dealing with one of the world's most enigmatic cipher mysteries, I would stand firmly on your side. However, as the text does not speak plainly to us, we may expect (or at least consider) the same of the images. So I am exploring the possibility of visually encrypted narrative fragments, just like the text is encrypted. If you do not think this is a possibility, then there is nothing I can do to convince you, and that's okay
I'm not going to dissuade you and assure you that my version is more correct. There just must be at least something on which to base a hypothesis. From my point of view, this object looks more like a bad ring than a bad apple. If I could catch at least something else here, I would have thought on your version. I fully support your idea in visually encrypted myths, but not in this case, I mean - not this story.
Something is really encrypted here. I ask myself: why try so hard to draw bodies of water in the circle of the zodiac, diligently draw pine-cone-shaped objects, but so casually depict the details of the bodies of nymphs?
It seems to me that all information should be more holistic, not fragmentary, that is, if there are myths, there should be some kind of connecting links in order to somehow collect all this. It would reveal what the Voynich manuscript is. What is this - a compilation "A single thread from everyone -and there's a shirt for a naked one" or is it an almanac of a healer-astrologer, or something else?

Thanks, I didn't think about red-copper.
