[Interview] Upcoming Voynich program at the Getty

[Gregor]

To understand the encoded meaning of the individual folios of the biological part of the Manuscript, we should take as an example the way in which Albert Braillè - the creator of the French animated series: "Once Upon a Time Life", presented the anatomy and functions of the organs of the human body in several series with various themes.

And this is also how we should perceive these "small and naked women, bathing in puddles or containers connected by an intricate network of pipes in the shape of human organs".

Just like in this animated series Albert Braillè, the creators of the Voynich Manuscript used a specific "modus operandi", by means of which they inform us, living today, that knowledge of anatomy at the microscopic level was not alien to them.

What knowledge is hidden in these illustrations of the Voynich Manuscript - in its biological (anatomical) part? Below I present my way of interpreting the individual folios (from 75 R to 84V).
