No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

In my opinion, the clock on the Rosettes page is one of the clearest iconographic clues. In the circle there are eight divisions with three marks each, the same marks that we see in other drawings in the VM and even within some gallows. It is simply a representation of time, the passing of hours. Each mark is 5 degrees, three marks 15 degrees, which is the same as one hour.

The entire Rosettes page is a representation of the medieval universe, as Mary D'Imperio brilliantly suggested. The spheres are unfolded because to represent the concentric spheres, one inside the other, I suppose it was not an easy task for any draftsman. In the center is the sphere with the jars from which the essences come out, the virtues of the stars that make de herbs sprout and grow. The blue of the sky is the color that dominates the page.

Sorry to sound condescending but I think it's no difficult to understand this.
