/mtd-gr-03-m.jpg "Representations of crosses raised on an ornamental base and decorated with floral motifs or with interlaced bands are usually found in the margins of Armenian manuscripts, full-page crosses occurring only in the earliest known books (ninth and tenth centuries). Such crosses form a prominent feature of the art of Eastern Christendom, especially of Syrian art. In many cases the ornamental and compositional treatment of the crosses is evocative of Armenian khatchkars.�Representationer av kors uppresta av utsmyckade baser och dekorerade med blommotiv eller med inflätade band hittas vanligen i marginalerna hos armeniska mauskript, medan helsidiga kors förekommer endast i de tidiga kända böckerna (800- och 900-talen). Liknande kors formar ett framstående drag hos den österländska Kristendomens konst, speciellt den syrianska. i många fall påminner utsmyckningen och kompositionen hos korsen det som återfinns hos armeniska khatchkar.")

/mtd-cil-147-m.jpg "In this miniature the artist obviously sought to provide the text with as comprehensive an illustration as was possible within the limits of the page. It embraces several related episodes and covers the entire lower margin of the folio and part of the right-hand margin. The narrative character of the miniature is corroborated by the strict chronological order of the events depicted which follow each other in succession, step by step, from left to right.�I denna miniatyr sökte konstnören uppenbarligen att förse texten med en så innehållsrik illustration som möjligt inom gränserna för sidan. Den omfattar flera relaterade episoder och täcker hela den lägre marginalen av sidan och en del av den högra marginalen. Den beskrivande karaktären hos miniatyren bekräftas av en strikt kronologisk ordning av de avbildade händerlserna som följer varandra, steg för steg, från vänster till höger.")

/mtd-gr-72-m.jpg "The twelve partridges crowning the temple symbolize the Apostles. Contrary to the predominant iconographic convention the Infant Christ is depicted as stepping forward to meet St. Simeon. A similar archaic treatment is to be found in a carved ivory diptych dating from the seventh or eighth century in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The ornamentation decorating the pillars and the dome of the temple plays a key role in the miniature.�De tolv rapphönsen som krönar templet symboliserar apostlarna. I motsats till den dominerande ikonografiska konventionen är Jesubarnet avbildad som framlutande för att möta S:t Simeon. En liknande arkaisk behandling kan hittas i en uthuggen elfenbensdypikt från 600- eller 700-talet i Victoria and Albert Musuem, London. Utsmyckningen som dekorerar templets pelare och kupol spelar en nyckelroll i miniatyren.")
