For discussion of the “Russian” miniatures in the Madrid manuscript (including some representing Sviatoslav), see N. P. Kondakov, “Grecheskie izobrazheniia pervykh russkikh kniazei,” in Sbornik v pamiat’ sviatogo ravnoapostol'nogo kniazia Vladimira, I (Petrograd, 1917), 10-20 (Vol. CXXXVII of the publications of the Imperatorskoe Obshchestvo Liubitelei Drevnei Pis'mennosti).

2 I have adduced only three out of five miniatures here, since I do not have good reproductions of fol. 170r (Sviatoslav holding a council) and fol. 173T (Sviatoslav and his retinue killed by Pechenegs) at my disposal.
