No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

If I have a deep conviction, it is that the script and the imagery of Voynich form an indissoluble unit. A rare script corresponds to images no less rare. Given the failure to understand the script for decades, the only chance to ever understand this original medieval book is by understanding its illustrations. The script is only the consequence of the message that the images convey.

 Is it possible to know what the images say, not one of them but all together, the whole message? I think so, but first one of the most ingrained prejudices must disappear. In the VM there are no naked women, there is no biological or balneological section. None of that exists. The only thing there is are only personifications of heavenly influences, of the virtue of the stars. It is the only iconographic reading consistent with the rest of the book and with its time, in which this kind of personification was common.

  Once the prejudice has disappeared, a giant step will have been taken to understand the Voynich.
