Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fresco of notables of Akhtala Monastery. These are Jews from the Bible, depicted as Arabs: "The Jewish details from the Gospel accounts have been translated into the language of Muslim motifs. This was more comprehensible for the 13th-century inhabitant of the Caucasus and aroused an acute, specific and unequivocally negative response. The traditional Jewish headwear of the high priests were transformed into elaborate turbans, the scrolls open in front of them contain something similar to Arabic script, while the Jew in the background of «Christ before Pilate» is shown as a Seljuk Turk with a shaven chin, long moustaches and a cap that recall the fez." p.393
