Description

Department of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs, 1945‑65‑20. Armenia, 16th century. This manuscript is a liturgical psalter and perpetual calendar for the Armenian church. Psalms 1-147 are divided into eight canons, each of which is divided into seven sections. Canticles from the Old Testament follow each canon. Psalms 148-150 are followed by the canticle of the Three Hebrew Children, the three New Testament canticles, Psalm 151, the prayer of Manasseh, and the prayer composed by Saint Nersēs Shnorhali (the Graceful) for the twenty-four hours of the day. The manuscript includes ten full-page illuminations of Biblical figures and illuminated headpieces at the beginning of the eight canons of the the Psalter. The perpetual calendar at the end of the volume is presented with tables of the quincentenary cycle, explanatory notes, and dates of the feasts celebrated by the Armenian church. The scribe and illuminator may be the Yovanēs who is named in an internal colophon (p. 281).
