You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (aer, ignis, aqua, terra, lapis) is a decent match for the Voynich hypothetical "five elements" in f77r

This five elements imagery between the woman on the left and the man on the right I do agree with! But I see it as part of pregnancy, not of a distillation process.

Register or Login to view.I agree, if there is reference to quintessence in the VM then this is probably the most obvious place to look. Note that the male figure is most likely breathing into the pipe - look at his puffed cheeks. "Breath" can mean creation, life.

I had not noticed that before. There was a lot of uncertainty in earlier centuries about what and how much the father contributed to a pregnancy.
