#caucases

This is a colourization I did of an Armenian woman in Tbilisi. I can't find much more info on the original b+w. You can find the image on this livejournal: https://humus.livejournal.com/3474013.html

Caucuses, ca. late 19th century, housed in the Higgins Collection at the Worcester Museum of Art.

Take the 3.5 reversible cable car 🚠 to this beautiful 9th century Armenian Apostolic Monastery locates on a large basalt plateau. The 11 minute ride to the monastery is super fun and costs 7000 AMD (about $15). . . . . . . #tatev #tatevmonastery #monastery #armenia #caucases #visitarmenia #visiteverycountry (at Tatev Monastery) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzLVUiklfot/?igshid=s0tpf12d33cx

📍Geghard Church, Armenia 🇦🇲 . . A beautiful 4th century church that claims to have a piece of Noah’s Ark (which landed at nearby Mt Ararat) as well as a piece of the spear that the Romans used in the crucifixion of Christ. I didn’t see either of these relics, so I can’t say for sure that they are there, but I can say that it is a beautiful church carved into a rocky cave! . . . . . . #geghard #church #garni #armenia #caucases #centralasia #visitarmenia #ig_armenia (at Geghard) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzDLEFzF4Cy/?igshid=1bf96ovwfvfrh
