cFos Mug 2011

This mug is done in the style of Leonardo da Vinci, right up to the mirrored hand-writing he used for his texts.
Hints The “42” is hidden in the dice’s visible pips, the current year can be gained by counting the corners of the geometric objects: “20” + “6+5=11” = “2011“.

In the text the letters “r,o,j,v,n,b” are rendered in a slightly lighter tone, the letters “e,m,f,a,v” slightly stronger. By applying the Vigenère cipher with the correct key (361519 = “cfos“) one gets the names of “Martin” and “Chris”.
