Many thanks, Vladimir, for showing that my initials are in the MS

This is not just dirt but it seems impossible to say whether there is anything intentional here. It is also quite clear in the newer scans.

Color annotations from Firenze Riccardiana You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. f.43v

V=verde (green)
B=bianco (white)
R=rosso (red)

On the left-side stem, it could be either O=oro or C=citrino for yellow.
It seems the R annotation for the top-right fruit or blossom was ignored.

I think it is O for Oro, since it reoccurs as O in the leaf and petals of the same plant.

Maybe they used color annotations so intensively on this page because of all the alternations/combinations/patterns?

Thank you, Koen. The alternating colors of the leaves obviously make these annotations an interesting parallel for Voynich You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
I guess A stands for "Azzurro". The R at the top-right was apparently corrected into an A, so the color is consistent after all.
