I'm still doubting between 4 and 5.
No. 4 is probably one of the most interesting parts of the MS from the perspective of art history. The threedimensionality created by the little hanging flower in the back harkens back to the lifelike depictions of plants in antiquity. But might also look forward to late/post-medieval developments. It's presence in the VM is fascinating.
I'm quite fond of the overall composition of 5 though, which has several anomalies of its own. So I'll vote for this one.
