/PanARMENIAN.Net/ This year Italian restorers completed restoration
works of "Birth of Toros Roslin", the famous fresco of Minas Avetisyan
. Meanwhile the ministry of culture of Armenia and the Italian side
have reached an agreement over the restoration of another fresco,
most likely, "Hayastan".
" An agreement was reached over restoration of Minas' fresco "Hayastan"
("Armenia"), but there are no funds for restoration work," Sona
Harutyunyan, Adviser to the Minister of Culture of Armenia told a
PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
"Hayastan" fresco is created on the single wall of the House of Culture
survived after the 1988 earthquake in Vahramaberd village in Shirak
marz. Fresco was closed with sarcophagus for safe preservation.
According to the adviser to the culture minister, the restoration
of the fresco, created in 1973, will require a lot more money than
the restoration of "The Birth of Toros Roslin" because it is larger,
and it preserved worse than the previous one.
"If necessary funds are provided, the restoration of "Hayastan "
will be held in 3 stages, 10 to 12 days each," Sona Harutyunyan said.
Armenia perserved 11 frescos of Minas, some of them are in the
building of the former electrical plant of Gyumri and villages of
Shirak: Vahramaberd, Azatan. All of them are significantly damaged
during the 1988 earthquake and need restoration.
