Description

Էջմիածինի Գանձեր (Treasures of Etchmiadzin) is a grand coffee table book with large, glossy pictures of the relics of the Mother See of the Armenian Apostolic Church, Holy Etchmiadzin.

This album, issued by order of His Holiness Vasken I-- late Catholicos of All Armenians--was prepared by art scholars from Armenia. It is preceded by a general survey of Armenian architecture and painting, and outlines the principal characteristics of each group with specific examples.

Each photograph is accompanied by a description of the subject matter featured, including churches, khatchkars, coins, metal objects, woodcarvings, rugs, needlework, and engravings, miniatures, paintings and other kids of relics.

Many of the objects are published in this volume for the very first time. They show the many facets of Armenian national art and can provide the basis for intensive studies within each category. The vivid photographs bring the Armenian Church's long and noble past to life in your home. It is a perfect gift for anyone interested in Armenian art or Armenian church history.
