I found the authors conclusion an eye-opener. If text and images were transmitted independently and illustrations were chosen and recombined from multiple sets of stock paintings, this leads us directly to Diebold Lauber's workshop. Rather than assuming the VM authors copied illustrated books we should consider the hypothesis that they chose and modified existing illustrations with or without direct connection to their text. Gemini would be such example where an unrelated stock image was adapted and both texts and images could have been combined from a multitude of unrelated sources and modified for their intended purpose.
