Overview

We are from a country with a history of thousands of years and we want to tell about the cultural values of our country. Since we could not represent that great period in one work, we decided to focus on people  and monuments, which  in our opinion are important for the history of Armenia. And so, as a result of our conversations and creativity, our four canvases were born. Each of them is dedicated to a separate story. Let's look separately.
We dedicated the first canvas to Tigranes the Great. Many people can remember Tigran as a historical character, about whom more than 30 operas were written. For Armenia, Tigranes the Great is the most powerful and intelligent king, whose name is a symbol of Armenia's power and statehood. It is no coincidence that we have included in our canvas both the cuneiform of the Ararat kingdom, as well as the modern Armenian flag and the Armenian government building.
