Cribs in the Voynich MS
#61
The rider appears to be wearing a mitre, which was worn by abbots and bishops. The manuscript belonged to the Barbavara family. A family member was an abbot. The folio shown is at the very beginning of the text, similar to a dedication. A second representation of the horse and rider is illustrated on 18v.

Is there some other historical explanation that is more convincing?
