Eastern Christian World, Mahmoud Zibawi, the Liturgical Press, Collegeville, Minnesota. b. Baptism of Christ, work of Toros Roslin, 1263. Manuscript Library of Maternandaran, Erevan. Somewhere back there is a whirlpool in the sea by a Japanese monastery and maybe I'll go look for it sometime later. There is at least one other pic with a hand emerging from a sphere in the sky in this book. In fact the one above this has such a hand emerging from one of the concentric rings that mark the surface of the sphere. This also has rays coming from the same rings. The word I'm trying to think of is "lituus" but I'll never come up with the one for the strand of hair on the side of an Egyptian youth's head.

Eastern Christian World, Mahmoud Zibawi, the Liturgical Press, Collegeville, Minnesota. 31. St John, gospel book, 1248. Armenian Catholicosate of Cilicia, Antilyas, Lebanon. I liked the depiction of the four quarters more even than of the four gospels.
