In this talk, Dr. Elizabeth Morrison, Senior Curator of Manuscripts at the J. Paul Getty
Museum, will discuss the small but important collection of Armenian manuscripts at the
Getty. Highlights will include leaves by perhaps the most famous Armenian illuminator,
T’oros Roslin; a new acquisition formerly unknown to manuscript scholars; and a Gospel
book the Getty has been putting back together for almost 40 years.
Elizabeth Morrison is Senior Curator of Manuscripts at the J. Paul Getty Museum. During
her twenty-five years there, she has curated numerous exhibitions, including “Imagining the
Past in France, 1250-1500” in 2010 and “Book of Beasts: The Bestiary in the Medieval World in
2019,” both of which were finalists for the College Arts Association award for outstanding
exhibition catalogue. She has served on the boards of the International Center of Medieval

Art and the Medieval Academy of America, and is currently the Vice President of the Asso-
ciation of Art Museum Curators.
