Beginning of the Gospel of Matthew from the Alaverdi Gospels

Alaverdi Gospels (Alaverdi Four Gospels) - is a Georgian manuscript gospel copied in the Georgian monastery of Black Mountain Kalipos(Antiochia) in 1054[1][2][3][4][5] by the famous calligraphers of the 11th century, Giorgi and John Dvali. It is the only Georgian manuscript to contain a mandylion, an impression of the face of the Savior on a shroud. The cover, composed of leather and metal, is adorned with a painted icon of Jesus Christ. This icon was subsequently set into a silver-chased frame embellished with precious stones and cloisonné enamel images of St. George, crafted in the 11th-12th century AD. Holy objects were traditionally stored in the sockets on the cover. The cover itself dates back to the late Middle Ages. [6][7][8]

Ivane, the son of Liparit Bagvashi, brought the book to Georgia in 1059 as a sign of obedience to Bagrat IV.[9]

High-quality parchment is used as writing material. contains 330 pages; The dimensions of the sheets are: 24X19 centimeters. It was written in both Nuskhuri and Asomatavruli scripts.[10]
