Parallels for Moon/Sun/... faces
#1
This is a subject I have not looked into yet, so I don't know how common or rare examples are. At first glance, it looks like moon faces are not uncommon. 
However, several of the faces in the VM celestial bodies are quite characteristic, so it might be informative to find parallels.

I found one stylistic parallel for the frontal face, which is unfortunately a bit late (1491). The BSB site is incredibly slow for me atm so I can't look in the rest of the MS.
