More than 28.000 people visited the exhibition of "Armenia Sacra;
Return Home". The exhibition opened in September 11 and closed three
days ago. The information is produced by Karen Khachatryan, the deputy
director of Armenian History Museum.
As it turned out mainly native people visited the exhibition,
but the number of visitors from Diaspora and foreign tourists was
also high. Before the exhibition was transmitted to Louvre, it
was open to the visitors in the Museum of History, in Matenadaran,
and in Echmiadzin. But the fact that it was presented in Louvre was
significant for Armenians; it was very inspiring.
"The fact that the exhibition took place in Louvre is very attractive,
as there are many people who even think that those models of art are
brought from Louvre. So Louvre is a special standard for evaluating
things," said Anelka Grigoryan, the director of the History Museum.
In the exhibition of "Armenia Sacra" more than 200 masterpieces of
Armenian heritage coming from the ages were presented.
Note: Recently the delegation of Russian famous artists arrived in
Armenia. The Prime Minister Serjh Sargsyan offered to the director
of "Ermitage" to organize the continuation of "Armenia Sacra" in
St. Petersburg. The proposal was gratefully accepted. Hope that
Russian people will get acquainted with Armenian sacred models too.
