Art of the Armenian Diaspora

Art of the Armenian Diaspora. This volume includes 10 studies on the history and art of the Armenian Diaspora from the Byzantine to the modern period. The authors of the articles represent the most important research centres where research in the history of Armenian art is conducted. In several articles we have a presentation of unknown monuments like a recently discovered manuscript (from 1352), belonging to the collection of a French collector Guillaume Aral or the Armenian Bible from the Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon (17th Century). The book also includes historical articles about the Armenian Diaspora in Central Europe. The volume ends with articles on the present day.Tabl e of contentsWaldemar DelugaIntroductionEmma ChookaszianSur quelques pages issues d’un manuscrit de l’ecole de CrimeeBeatrice TolidjanThe art of church building and facade decoration in Ottoman Macedonia.
