Aanvullende informatie

Toros Roslin was a 13th-century Armenian illuminator working at the scriptorium of Hromkla, producing manuscripts of extraordinary refinement during a period when the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia was navigating uneasy alliances between the Crusader states and the Mongol powers pressing from the east. Six of his signed manuscripts survive, held across institutions including the Walters Art Museum and the Matenadaran in Yerevan.

The coin is part of Armenia's ongoing bullion and commemorative gold program celebrating figures from medieval Armenian cultural history. Roslin signed his name to his work — unusual for manuscript illuminators of the period.
