Voynich Reconsidered

[R. Sale]

My preference, not pictured, would be the f68v1 illustration of the "wheel with curved spokes". While not as aesthetically attractive as the other candidates, if one follows the investigative line that proposes an idiosyncratic pairing of "Oresme's" cosmos (BNF Fr. 565) drawn inside Shirakatsi's "Eight Phases of the Moon", it is a lot more interesting than the others, which, at this point, are essentially just 'pretty faces'. Additionally, the recognition of the heraldic nebuly line used as an artistic representation of a cosmic boundary in the illustration is quite helpful in further VMs investigation.
