  • Unseen Armenia – Discovering Griboyedov
    Keghart Unseen Armenia – Discovering Griboyedov Non-partisan Website Devoted to Armenian Affairs, Human Rights https://keghart.org/daghdigian-tchagharyan-griboyedov/ and Democracy UNSEEN ARMENIA – DISCOVERING GRIBOYEDOV Posted on September 14, 2020 by Keghart Category: Opinions Page: 1 Keghart Unseen Armenia – Discovering Griboyedov Non-partisan Website Devoted to Armenian Affairs, Human Rights https://keghart.org/daghdigian-tchagharyan-griboyedov/ and Democracy Hovsep Daghdigian and Vladimir Tchagharyan, Harvard MA, 28August 2020 A number of locations and institutions in Armenia have Russian names – most of which we may have heard of; Sakharov Square in Yerevan, the Pushkin School, etc. On Yerevan’s Tigran Mets street, near the amusement park, stands the statue of Russian author Alexander Griboyedov and in Armavir province lies the village of Griboyedov. In back of the Noy Yerevan Wine factory is an inscription indicating Griboyedov’s play “Woe from Wit” was first performed here. So, who was Griboyedov? Griboyedov – Author, Diplomat: Alexander Griboyedov was born on 4 January 1795 in Russia’s Vladimir Province to a family of minor Russian nobility. Though poor, his mother insisted he get an education. In Moscow, as a member of the nobility, he was entitled to attend the “Noble Pension” school. Subsequently at age 11 he entered the Imperial University’s faculty of literature. Though good at languages and with good grades, he demonstrated no special aptitude for literature. In 1812, when Napoleon’s army invaded Russia, Griboyedov briefly served in the army but saw no action. After leaving the military in 1814, prior to the death of his father, he moved to Saint Petersburg.

  • 162 the Poles in the Russian Empire and Their Opinions
    162 Ցեղասպանագիտական հանդես 3 (1-2), 2015 THE POLES IN THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE AND THEIR OPINIONS ABOUT THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE Dominika Maria Macios The outbreak of the Great War brought Poles hope to reunite the Polish lands and regain the craved independence. Before it happened, though, they had had to endure four years of a war they had never experienced. Poles in Russia had to fight on multiple fronts, accept a throng of refugees and provide them with care, and struggle hard to internationalise the Polish cause despite opposition on the part of the tsar and later the Bolshevik government. Even though the Polish press discussed so many important issues it also published information about other nations in similar situation, among others about Armenians. In the article titled “The Poles in The Russia Empire and their opinion about Arme- nian Genocide,” the press will be used to exemplify Poles’ opinions about the Armenian extermination: reasons, proceedings and effects.1 Firstly in my paper I would like to represent a common history between Poland and Russia since 1795 to 1921, and also talk about the fates of the Poles in the Russian Empire. After that I’m going to depict the Polish opinion about “the Armenian question” before WWI. Then I will talk about the articles published about the Armenian Genocide in the Polish press between 1914 and 1917, and specify the Polish attitudes to the genocide, how the Poles saw a common fate with the Armenians and the Armenian independence after the war. Poland and Russia Poles’ opinions, beliefs, and history were strictly conditioned by the history of relationships between the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Russian Empire.

  • The Hunter's Rest Signed and Dated ‘F
    Franz Alekseevich Roubaud(Odessa 1856 - Munich 1928) The Hunter's Rest signed and dated ‘F. Roubaud/1875’ (lower left) oil on canvas 33.3 x 49.2 cm (13⅛ x 19⅜ in) The Hunter’s Rest is a marked departure from Frants Alekseevich Rubo’s historical paintings for which he is best known and, along with Study of a Cossack and Lone Cossack Horseman is part of a number of other works he executed of the varied cultures and people of the Caucasus region. This calm painting by Rubo portrays a peaceful and very personal moment of reflection in the daily life of a hunter. As his horse rests and eats from the grassy bank, and with his gun laid down on his prayer rug, and his shoes removed, the bare footed hunter initiates part of his daily prayer, Salat. His hands are raised upwards as he begins, and his elaborately decorated prayer rug is laid out on the ground, facing Mecca. Salat is one of the five pillars of Islam practiced by Muslims and is performed five times day: before sunrise, Salat al-fajr; at noon, Salat al-zuhr; the late part of the afternoon, as depicted here, Salat al-’asr; after sunset, Salat al-maghrib; and Salat al-’isha, between sunset and midnight. Though not required for prayer, the prayer mat helps to keep the worshipper clean -the only requirement in Islam is that prayers be performed in an area that is clean- and comfortable during the set positions and movements of prayer. The rugs are often patterned with geometric, floral, arabesque designs, or depict Islamic landmarks such as the Ka’aba in Mecca or Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, while others are created from solid colours.

  • Study of a Cossack Signed 'F
    Franz Alekseevich Roubaud (Odessa 1856 - Munich 1928) Study of a Cossack signed 'F. Roubaud' (lower right) oil on canvas 25 x 20.5 cm (9⅞ x 8 in) This delicate study shows a Cossack, deep in thought. It is a particularly intimate moment as Franz Alekseevich Roubaud focuses solely on the head and shoulders of the man to convey the deeper thoughts and emotion within. His eyes are cast downwards looking at something unknown to the viewer whilst a cigarette is smoked almost to the filter. Roubaud deftly applies light, sweeping movements of his brush to replicate soft sunlight falling on the brow, beard, and right shoulder of the man. The man wears a brown tunic, and the red crown of his fleece hat suggests he could perhaps be identified as a Kuban Cossack. Kuban is in the south of Russia and surrounds the Kuban River on the Black Sea between the Don Steppe, Volga Delta and the Caucasus. Although the Kuban Cossacks were established in 1864, they were descendants of the Black Sea Cossacks (originally the Zaporozhian Cossacks) and the Caucasus Line Cossacks. However, this identification cannot be certain as Cossacks were expected to provide their own uniforms, and there was no accepted pattern or insistence on any such outfits. While these were sometimes manufactured in bulk by factories owned by the individual Host, garments were 125 Kensington Church Street, London W8 7LP United Kingdom www.sphinxfineart.com Telephone +44(0)20 7313 8040 Fax: +44 (0)20 7229 3259 VAT registration no 926342623 Registered in England no 06308827 often handed down or cut out within a family.
