/mtd-gr-78-m.jpg "The illustrator of this manuscript apparently preferred the full compositional versions of the Gospel scenes: the miniature in question represents all the twelve apostles; in accordance with the Gospel of St. Matthew, the ass upon which Christ is seated is accompanied by a colt (Matt. 21:2-7). The crowd of people welcoming Christ completes the composition.�Illustratörn av detta manuskript föredrog tydligen de fullt kompositionella versionerna av Evangeliescenerna: miniatyren här representerar alla två apostlarna; i enlighet med S:t Matteus-evangeliet, åsnan som Kristus sitter på åtföljs av ett föl (Matteus 21:2-7). Massan som välkomnar Kristus kompletterar kompositionen.")

/mtd-gr-26-m.jpg "The strict symmetry of the composition is broken by the figures of mourning angels extending beyond the frame of the scene. A certain dynamic quality is felt in the figure of St. John bending over the feet of Christ. The network of pink lines in the background resembles the binding of an earlier Tatev manuscript (now in the Etchmiadzin collection), where a similar network forms the background of the two relief-like figures representing Grigor Tatevatsi and John Vorotnetsi.�Det stikta symmetrin hos kompositionen bryts av figurerna av sörjande änglar som sträcker sig utanför scenens ram. En viss dynamisk kvalitet känns igen i figuren S:t Johannes som böjer sig över Kristus fötter. Nätverket av skära linjer i bakgrunden påminner om bindningen av ett tidigare Tatev-manskript (nu i Etchmiadzins samling), där ett liknande nätverk formar bakgrunden hos två reliefliknande figurer, representerande Grigor Tatevatsi och John Vorotnetsi.")

/mtd-cil-118-m.jpg "Almost the entire pictorial space is filled with figures, the role of the landscape and of architectural motifs being reduced to minimum, and little space left for the gold background. The difference in the size of the figures is due to the artist's attempt to discriminate between the characters in terms of their relative importance, and has nothing to do with the spatial approach or perspective. Such a naive gradation of figures makes the composition of the scene seem somewhat schematic, in contrast to the figures themselves, treated in an almost realistic manner.<br>The palette of the artist is rich and brilliant, consisting of subtle shades of pink, violet, light green, golden or brown, combined with occasional bright touches of dark blue, red and gold. The magnificence of colour is supported by the beauty of the filigree ornamentation of the framing, whose floral design incorporates representations of twenty-two prophets, displaying a variety of both facial types and attitudes.�")

/mtd-gr-05-m.jpg "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.")

/mtd-gr-33-m.jpg "The deliberately elongated figures and rich colouring give great expressiveness to the miniature. The artist succeeds in creating the optical effect of volume, especially in so far as the modelling of the faces is concerned. The static pose of the Virgin, struck motionless by surprise, is contrasted with the swift movement of the approaching archangel.�De avsiktligt förlängda figurerna och den rikliga färgsättningen ger stort uttyckfullhet till miniatyren. Konstnären lyckas i skapandet av den optiska effekten av volym, i synnerhet vad det gäller modelleringen av ansikten. Den statiska poseringen hos Jungfrun, rörelselös av överraskningen, kontrasteras med den snabba rörelsen av den annalkande arkeängeln.")
