Dragana Acimovic
In previous research the human figures represented in initials on fol. 26v and 120r of Miroslav Gospel have been interpreted as personifications Year (Annus). However, this view can be challenged based their iconographic characteristics, verses that follow, place these liturgical practice comparison with relevant visual specimens. The paper proposes a new identification shown figures. figure initial an allusion to Feast Pentecost, while image could arguably represent Old Testament patriarch Noah.
