Department: City
Catalog: N/A
Document Nr.: Stepanos�Stepanos�Unknown�Okänd
Document Type: Although the general style of the few marginals, headpieces and initials in this Bible is undoubtedly related to that of the 1286 Lectionary, the decor as such is much more modest, and the small slanting script gives an altogether different appearance to the illuminated folios.�Även om den allmänna stilen hos de få marginalerna, överstycken och initialerna i denna bibel är utan tvekan relaterade till det hos 1286 års Evangeliebok, är dekoren betydligt mer sparsamt och den mindre lutande skriften ger ett övergripande annat utseende till de illustrerade sidorna.
Nr of Pages: Manuscript page�Manuskriptsida
Document Date: 0-The marginal ornaments, headpieces and ornate initials in the Bible are distinguished for their refinement of forms and for their minute treatment of details, which, together with their colouring based on bright red, deep blue and gold, are characteristic of Cilician miniatures produced between 1250 and 1290.
The initials, distinguished for the elegance of their proportions and the delicacy of ornamental design, are not stylized and retain a noble austerity of form.�Marginalernas dekoration, överstycken och utsmyckade initialerna i bibeln är utmärkta för deras delikata former och för deras noggarnna dehandling av detaljer, vilka, tillsammans med deras färgsättning baserade på ljust rött, djup blå och guld, är karaktäristiska för de kilikiska miniatyrerna producerade mellan 1250 och 1290. Initialerna, utomordentliga för deras proportioner och delikatessen hos utsmyckningens design, är inte stiliserade och behåller en ädel spartansk form.-1295�

Department: 53
Catalog: N/A
Document Nr.: Arakel, Stepanos and Nikolayos�Arakel, Stepanos och Nikolayos�The first two parts unknown, the third part by Nikolayos�De två första delarna okända, den tredje är av Nikolayos
Document Type: The manuscript was begun in the thirteenth century in Bologna, Italy, and finished in 1368 in the Crimea. In the seventeenth century the initial parts of the Old Testament were rewritten and illuminated anew, also in the Crimea. Despite the different dates of their production the three sections of the manuscript produce a remarkably uniform impression due to the fact that each succeeding master apparently tried to remain faithful to the original stylistic principles.�Manuskriptet börjades under 1200-talet i Bologna, Italien och avslutades år 1368 i Krim. Under 1600-talet skrev man om initiala delarna till det Gamla Testamentet och målade om dem, även det i Krim. Trots olika produktionsdatum för de tre sektionerna skapar manuskriptet ett märkvärdigt unifotmt intryck på grund av det faktum att varje efterföljande mästare har tydligen försökt vara troget de ursprungliga stilistika principerna.


Nr of Pages: The apocalypse�Apokalypsen
Document Date: 0-Since the Apocalypse had long been relegated to apocryphal sources, it was not included into the biblical illustrative cycles until a relatively late date. The earliest Apocalypse illustrations found in Armenian illuminated manuscripts date from the late thirteenth (e.g. the 1269 Bible of Yerzynka) and the early fourteenth century (Lectionaries). This is also true for the miniature in question, which was executed at the end of the thirteenth century by an Armenian master in Bologna. The treatment of the subject here is rather unusual: the God's throne is surrounded not by the conventional elders (Rev. 4:4) but by youths.
The miniature is stylistically related to late thirteenth-century Byzantine illumination, and in so far as its artistic quality is concerned it ranks among the best samples of Armenian book painting. In addition to expensive pigments and gold, the artist also used silver which effectively sets off the dark silhouettes of the angels.�Då Apokalypsen hade länge hänförts apokryfiska källor, var den inte inlkuderad i de bibliska illustrativa kretsarna tills relativt senare datum. Den tidigaste apokalyptiska illustrasionerna som återfinns i armeniska illustrerade manuskript daterade till sent 1200-tal (t.ex. 1269 års Bibel från Yerzynka) och tidigt 1300-tal (Evangeliebok). Detta stämmer även för miniatyren i fråga, som skapades vid slutet av 1200-talet av en armenisk mästare i Bologna. Behandlingen av ämnet här är ganska ovanligt: Guds tron är inte omringad av de konventionella äldre (Uppenbarelsboken 4:4) utan av yngre. Miniatyren är stilistisk relaterad till sent 1200-tals bysantinsk målning och vad det gäller dess artistiska kvalitet så räknas den till ett av de bästa exemplaren av armenisk bokmålning. Utöver dyra pigmenter och guld använder artisten även silver som effektivt framhäver de mörka siluetterna hos änglarna.-13C�17C

Department: 43
Catalog: Matenadaran (Yerevan)�Matenadaran (Jerevan)
Document Nr.: Vardan�Vardan�Stepanos�Stepanos
Document Type: The Moush Homiliarium is remarkable for its unique size: it is the largest known Armenian manuscript. Its present weight (without the missing binding and several folios) is 27.5kg. The history of the manuscript is of considerable interest. In the year it was completed a Seljuk army invaded Armenia and ravaged the town of Baberd. The manuscript which was there at the time of the invasion came into the possession of a Turkish judge. Two years later the judge put it on sale for 5,000 silver coins. To purchase the Homiliarium the monks from Moush collected donations for a whole year; in 1205 they finally amassed the necessary sum and bought the manuscript. It was transferred to Mush and placed in the library of the Arakelots monastery. In the nineteenth century the manuscript was divided into two parts for the sake of convenience and each part was bound separately. During World War I both parts of the manuscript, minus the bindings and several folios, were transferred independently of each other to Echmiadzin.�Moush homiliariumet är märkvärdigt för dess unika storlek: det är det största kända armeniska manuskriptet. Dess nuvarande vikt (utan den saknade bindningen och flera sidor) är 27,5kg. Manuskriptets historia är av stort intresse. Året då det avslutades invaderades Armenien av en seldjukisk armé som plundrade staden Baberd. Manuskriptet som då fanns i staden hamnade i en turkisk domares ägo. Två år senare lade domaren manuskriptet till salu för 5 000 silvermynt. För att köpa homiliariumet samlade munkarna i Moush donationer i ett helt år; år 1205 lyckades de slutligen samla tillräckligt med pengar för att köpa manuskriptet. Det överfördes till Moush och placerades i biblioteket hos Arakelots klostret. Under 1800-talet delades manuskriptet i två delar på grund av lämplighetsfråga och respektive del bands separat. Under första världskriget överfördes både delarna, exkl. bindningar och flera sidor, oberoende av varandra till Etchmiadzin.
Nr of Pages: Title page�Huvudsida
Document Date: 0-This is the only title-page in the manuscript. Its decor is evocative of the traditional arch-shaped ornamentation of the Canon tables, but the right-hand column is replaced by a large decorative initial. The name of the illuminator, Stepanos, is inscribed on the left-hand part of the page. It is traditionally assumed that the manuscript was illuminated by three artists, though the names of two of them remain unknown. The decor mainly consists of interlacing patterns which incorporate the figures of both naturalistic and fantastic birds and animals inspired by ancient symbolism and heathen totems.�Denna är den enda huvudsidan i manuskriptet. Dess dekor är påminner om den traditionella bågformade utsmyckningen av prästbord, men den högra kolumnen är ersatt med en stor dekorativ initial. Illustratörens namn, Stepanos, finns inskriven på den vänstra delen av sidan. Traditionellt har det antagits att manuskriptet har illustrerats av tre konstnärer, även om namnen på två av dem är okänt. Dekoren består huvudsakligen av sammanflätade mönster som inkluderar figurerna av både naturliga och fantasifåglar och djur, inspirerade av historisk symbolism och hedniska totem.-1202�

Nr of Pages: Cross�Kors
Document Date: 0-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.-1201�

Document Date: 0-The treatment of the khoran is somewhat unusual. The space within the framework, instead of containing the text of the letter of Eusebius or the Canon tables, is filled with an ornamental pattern of crescent-shaped, pointed and swirling leaves. The pattern is similar to those used in the Moush Homilarium and in the 1201 Gospels and is also evocative of the wall reliefs in the monastery of Airivank where the manuscript was produced.�Behandlingen av khoranen är något ovanligt. Utrymmet mellan ramverket, istället för att omfatta texten hos brevet från Eusebius eller texten för kanonskriften, är fylld med ett utsmyckningsmönster av halvmånsformade, spetsiga och virvlande löv. Mönstret är likt de som använts i Moush homilarium och i 1201 års Evangelium och påminner även om väggrelieferna i klostret Airivank där manuskriptet porducerades.-1217�

Document Date: 0-The headpiece of the khoran contains a half-length portrait of Carpianus (on another folio, there is a similar portrait of Eusebius). According to S. Der Nersessian, such portraits placed inside medallions are "a typically Armenian feature which does not occur in Byzantine or other East Christian manuscripts" (S. Der Nersessian, Armenian Manuscripts, Washington, 1963, p. 20). The ornamental design is derived from eleventh- and twelfth-century models.�Överstycket över khoranen innehåller ett halvlängt porträtt av Carpianus (på en annan sida finns ett liknande porträtt av Eusebius). Enligt S. Der Nersessian, är liknande porträtt placerade i medaljonger "ett typiskt armeniskt drag som inte förekommer i bysantinska eller andra österländska kristna manuskript" (S. Der Nersessian, Armenian Manuscripts, Washington, 1963, p. 20). Utsmyckningsdesignen är tagen från 1000- och 1100-talens modeller.-1232�

Document Date: 0-There are two figures in the left-hand margin of the Canon table, outside the arch of the khoran; the one below is a man carrying a large fish. The inscription beside this figure reads: "Sheranik, when you come, bring fish." This would seem to suggest that the figures in the margin represent real people, their rich attire being a sign of wealth and prominent social position.�Det finns två figurer på den vänstra delen av kanontexten, utanför khoranens valv; den undre är en man som bär en stor fisk. Skriften vid sidan om av figuren lyder: "Sheranik, när du kommer, ta med fisk." Detta kan föreslå att figurerna i marginalen representerar verkliga personer, medan deras rika beklädnad antyder deras välstånd och höga sociala ställning.-1211�
