No text, but a visual code

   What's astonishing is how little support some of his ideas have received.

Oh, that's easy to explain: Spain is not close enough to the Alps.

What I can say without exaggeration is that, as far as the Voynich imagery is concerned, he is the most qualified person who has consulted it in the entire history of research on the codex.

Regarding the Voynich texts, Alan Turing (surely one of the most quaified persons in deciphering) was asked and it seems like he either rejected the possibility of deciphering VMS at all or rejected just the idea of him trying it. This may be a result of VMS's circumstances or only a personal disposition of Turing himself, who was known to be more than excentric.
I don't know details about Panofsky, but the classic Science completely failed yet with all tries to solve this mystery.
Panofsky gave, obviously, also just some not-satisfying answers.

who held the codex in his hands and saw nothing biological or related to bathing. Neither female organs nor women bathing. 
Was he blind, or did he know how to interpret what he saw?

Maybe he entered some over-interpretative orbit, far away from us.

A good observation is worth more than a sophisticated "interpretation" or some spherical imagination.

Apart from Panofsky, let me show what I mean with this:
You claimed the "central image" of my top row of VMS images (of Sun faces) has to be a moon "blocking the sun" and referred to a change of blue lines and star fields around them.
So, according to you, the Sun obtained a Moon's face by combination.
There are two similar patterns of blue-and-stars to be observed at other images; the first one is from 67r, the other is one of the tents in the "Map" at 85/86:


- central badge of 1st picture seems to be a (male) moon here, I had not taken this into my picture rows
- "sunbeams" in red colour, if these are meant to be rays at all
- both images do not give any hint to a "change of day at night", as you interpreted
= the concept of day/night-change is not covered by any other images -- your interpretation is, at best, covered by alternative sources, off VMS.

But what is really puzzling me is the fact that you did not refer your interpretation to the last image of my top row, this little guy here:



You could have had it all;
- a Moon's head with the more-or-less crescent side parts
- a facial expression very similar to those of the other moons
- no long hair or head wear
- even an unexplained extra line visible in the southwest sector of badge

Your claim "Moon is covering the sun" would have been found upon those observations, and I might have hard times to counter that.
Doing "interpretations" may be a bit over sometimes -- that's why I prefer this good old slogan WYSIWYG.
Often enough, we all obviously see rather different things in VMS...
