A white backdrop with a gold and warm tones. The angel is a traditional Armenian iconography that can be found in many churches. The Angel is holding a white peace dove, and standing on top of Armenian Churches.

The piece was created at the height of the recent Artsakh war in 2020. It is meant to symbolize the longstanding Armenian Christianity and culture, and our faith in our religion during those most difficult times.

There are other symbolisms such as: the immortality sphere found in cross carvings, the Armenian sun and traditional symbols found in Armenian rugs and carpets.
