Being an Evangeliary (Evangelion), it is meant for the Gospel lections of the whole liturgical year. As determined by Nina V. Pigulevskaya, all the miniatures were added to it later. These additional folia with the miniatures also contain the date of completion and the name of the person involved. Besides, a part of the illuminations is marked in his hand as “a new image”, while the others are called “an old image”. Their iconographic features and the data provided by the notes enable us to see various tendencies that were present in the manuscript production of the Chaldean (East Syriac Catholic) Church in the late 19th—early 20th centuries in a new light. At the same time, the “conservator” accompanied the miniatures with quatrains, as was the normal practice, since they were an important element of manuscript illumination.
