Abstract

This image originally faced the beginning of the Acts of the Apostles in a late eleventh-century psalter and New Testament in Mount Athos, Vatopedi Monastery MS 762. It seems likely that in this manuscript, the scribe and illuminator were the same person.

Hand note

Elegant sloping cursive; rubrics added by a later, fifteenth-century hand
