Whoever believes that the naked ladies represent real women of flesh and blood has to explain why they are seen on tubes or stuck in them. What do those pipes mean?
For me it is no secret since I see the tubes on the Rosette folio. It is the representation of the medieval universe. All you need is to know the culture of the time. It is a universe of superimposed crystalline solid spheres that must be crossed to reach Earth. What the ladies do, the allegory of the stars, is to descend through these tubes to fertilize the Earth and make the plants grow.
If anyone has a better explanation, I will read it carefully. But please, let it be an explanation like mine that relates all the sections of the book because the VM is a unit of meaning.
