Details

The striking and ancient beauty of this sculpture carved entirely by hand from felsite stone is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Armenian duo Ruben and Karen Ghazaryan. Khachqars, or stone crosses, are primarily associated with the Armenian Apostolic Church, one of the oldest denominations in the world. They are often placed in churchyards, or other religious sites as a way of invoking divine protection. They usually consist of a cross with intricate geometric and floral designs. These designs have deep symbolic meanings related to Armenian history.
