    Martiros Saryan portrayed a different Armenia, today marks the
    painter's birthday

    14:46, 28 February, 2015


    YEREVAN, 28 FEBRUARY, ARMENPRESS. Great patriot, phenomenal painter,
    intellectual...The friends and relatives of Martiros Saryan, as well as
    art lovers and those who appreciate his work gathered near the statue
    of the painter and paid tribute to him on February 28th, which marks
    Saryan's birthday. This year marks the painter's 135th birthday
    anniversary.

    Director of the Home-Museum of Martiros Saryan, the painter's
    granddaughter Ruzan Saryan says Saryan was eternal. "We celebrate this
    day and take pride once again in the fact that the Armenian nation has
    individuals like Martiros Saryan who left a legacy and art that we can
    be proud of,"the painter's granddaughter mentioned, as "Armenpress"
    reports. Ruzan Saryan is certain that many foreigners view Saryan's
    paintings and visit Armenia to see what a heavenly land is portrayed
    in his paintings.

    Sculptor Levon Tokmajyan is the creator of the statue of Martiros
    Saryan. "When I was working on the statue for years, I would ask
    myself what Saryan should look like. He described Armenia for us
    through his paintings. Armenians have many gifted painters who have
    portrayed Mount Ararat, but no painter saw Armenia as Saryan did.
    Saryan is the symbol of the Armenian nation. The sun and light are
    seen in his art," Levon Tokmajyan mentioned.
