Gospels of Georg Alexief, Annunciation; Joseph's dream, This manuscript was created in the seventeenth century, perhaps in Constantinople, based on the style of its illumination. The gospel cycle that precedes the text contains slightly more miniatures than is traditional; especially notable are the two—representing the feeding of the five thousand and the cleansing of the temple—which come out of sequence at the end of the cycle. The miniatures in this manuscript, like many at this time, reflect the mingling of traditional Cilician and Western influences
