After all, color annotations do sometimes appear in manuscripts. See, for example, Marco’s post:

Quote:Alain Touwaide Wrote:
Voynich ms illustrations contain instructions about the colors to be applied to pen drawings, according to the different parts of plants. Such instructions mention the name of the color to be applied (Voynich f4r), but in German, a peculiar fact that does not seem to be compatible with a Northern Italian origin of the manuscript.
