The titles
This article is dedicated to the structural and stylistic analysis of the titles of Vat. copt. 57. Observing the graphic and decorative aspects of the titles of Vat. copt. 57-69, and of Vat. copt. 57 in particular, one can reasonably deduce that the scriptorium of Dayr al-Anbā Maqār involved the activity of different specialists of the making of the book, including persons charged with the specific task of the decoration . This impression is confirmed by internal and external evidence. The comparison with the, more or less coeval, codices of the White Monastery it is very striking.
