Portions of the Medieval Galleries have been renovated, thanks to the generous support of Mary and Michael Jaharis. The apse beneath the Great Hall Stairs has become part of the Mary and Michael Jaharis Galleries for Byzantine Art and features the Museum’s newly acquired manuscript, the Jaharis Byzantine Lectionary, a rare masterpiece of Byzantine art from around the year 1100. An 18-foot-tall marble ciborium (altar canopy) from twelfth–century Italy is the focal point of the former Tapestry Hall that has become a new gallery of Medieval Europe devoted to works of art in all media from about 1050 to 1300.
