Some interesting commentary, thanks. However, even with "Voynich Velinska cosmos" I did not see her original post regarding inverted T-O representation of Earth along with the relevant illustrations from the two historical Parisian sources. It is the visual examination of these atypical cosmic representations that reveals the significant similarities and differences with the VMs version. The similarities are structural, including the 43 undulations of the cosmic boundary. The differences are visual, as if the artist intentionally code shifted pictorial representations into vords.
It's sort of along the lines of a "Can't judge a book by its cover." kind of theme. The VMs artist maintains the structure but does as much as possible to maximize the visual differences. It's still the same thing, but it looks entirely different. The obfuscation of historical information is repeated and can be presumed to be intentional. When we know the history and have the relevant examples, as here, then we can see a part of what he VMs artist has done.
