Do you know what manuscripts are these?

Last week I visited the brilliant gallery of House of MinaLima in London. As a huge fan of the artwork displayed there I always wanted to look more into what were the sources of the things they sometimes use.

What really caught my attention were two manuscripts that were used in the backgrounds of some of the graphics there.

There was also another one which was more in format of the table but still looked like a manuscript to me.

A Harry Potter book. See the quote from the image as compared with: http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Paganism and https://books.google.com/books?id=p72oCwAAQBAJ&pg=PA88&lpg=PA88&dq=the+terms+and+symbols+of+biblical+and+pagan+mythology,+astrology,+kabbalah+and+other+mystic+and+esoteric+fields&source=bl&ots=JPMm1pJBHA&sig=Ca4RaDeKbZyydO18QUXtIL4wHHI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiPxJq8ye3UAhWK8YMKHfT2Cb4Q6AEILTAB#v=onepage&q=the%20terms%20and%20symbols%20of%20biblical%20and%20pagan%20mythology%2C%20astrology%2C%20kabbalah%20and%20other%20mystic%20and%20esoteric%20fields&f=false

So--it's a work of fantasy.

I will note that while the book's status as a work of fiction makes it of dubious historical value, the author's failure to use an Oxford comma is the most solid indicator that they are not a reliable source of information.

EDIT: /u/lolek247 managed to track down the image originall. It's from Copernicus's original manuscript of De Rev: http://pka.bj.uj.edu.pl/bjmanus/revol/images/030r.jpg
