Moscow: Muzei Moskovskogo Kremlia, 2014. Sewn cl. The Museum of the Moscow Kremlin owns a lavish manuscript of the seventeenth century — the coronation album of the first tsar of the Romanov dynasty, which chronicles in elegant miniatures and Slavic calligraphy the beginning of a dynasty in 1613 that would last over 300 years. This monograph publishes the miniatures as two-page spreads followed by the text in the Old Church Slavonic of the original manuscript and in modern Russian. The authors explicate each image pointing out the significance of the iconography and discerning discrepancies between words and imagery — at times the artists represented a variant of the action to emphasize one or another aspect of it thus making the visual documents original sources not mere illustrations of the chronicle. The intricate but clean compositions, brilliant colors, and wealth of information on ritual, costume, and architecture make the manuscript a masterpiece of the genre. 306 p., 28 cm, approx. 60 color illus., Rus. Item #2725
ISBN: 9785886782776

N.B. The title of this book is very similar to a book published by "Artkitchen", which brought out a facsimile edition in 2012. This edition also reproduces the original but not as a facsimile. The commentary on each miniature gives the book the scholarly detail of a monograph.
