I agree and appreciate everything you've said, RH, except I get fatigued thinking about writing an article. I'm very bad with photoshop too. If I'm at all qualified, it's in literary analysis, myth and archeology, not the usual suspects for Voynich studies.
Koen, I keep thinking about the "clock" and apophatic imagery, and perhaps your idea of Ecclesia and the actual physical church mapped onto the rosettes page.
I am sure you are aware of images of God the Geometer. My understanding is that one such image was on the front cover of the Old French Bible for over a hundred years, 13th and 14th century.
The VMS "clock hands" are rounded on the ends. But if they were not, you'd have a pair of compasses, and with or without an image of God beside them I bet everyone of the age would say, aha God the Geometer.
Another thing I like about that Bible image - God's foot extends beyond the frame! Signifying pre-creation - the planning stage.
Nice little marriage of Christianity, Hermeticism and apophatic imagery. If the ends weren't round.
