Voynich manuscript

My first impression on seeing the picture from the Voynich manuscript was that it was a medieval windrose, such as mariners used on their maps. They also had a maximum of 12 points, as this picture does. Then I saw the face, which I don't remember if I've ever seen on a windrose.
