VMs f75r - Nymph Holding Spurtle

[Barbrey]

Which rainbow are we looking at? The one in Koen's post is clearly double - one for the seat and one for the footrest. And nice cloudbands btw.

The VMs has several rainbows of sorts. Is the text about meteorology and optics dealing with rainbows or is the interpretation more religious. There are other potentially Christian interpretations in this section: the Agnus Dei, Colette of Corbie; but there are also Classical myths from Ovid, Lady Necessity with her cosmic spindle, and the Muses in their half-arcaded fountain, plus pagan references in the form of mythical Melusine of Luxembourg.

Given that the artist has borrowed so widely, it's hard to see some more fanatical orientation pro or con for any specific perspective. It's more a like a collection of references from a wide spectrum of material and the VMs cosmos and the zodiac sequence expand it even further.

Okay got it, thank you!  Koen is talking about the one in the picture he posted, I was talking about You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. .

Yes, I think I’ve read about all of those and even contributed a little.
