I think it is extremely unlikely that Hartllieb was the VMS Author, for reasons that are given elsewhere.

However, to my eyes the letter shapes on that manuscript are a fair match to those of f116v, excluding the Voynichese words.   Is that manuscript in Koen's list of candidates for f116v?

I suppose the resemblance is not sufficient to make Hartlieb a likely candidate for the person who wrote the You are not allowed to view links.

All the best, --stolfi
