Leaf from Ms. Ludwig II 7 with The Raising of Lazarus
A leaf from an illuminated Armenian Gospel manuscript made in 1615 by the scribe and painter Mesrop of Khizan, now held by the J. Paul Getty Museum. The picture shows Christ with haloed apostles and a figure in a green wrapping raised from a tomb, framed by a decorative border. Designers may take its flat planes, saturated ochre, red and blue palette, and gold halo motifs from the scene.
