Directions
The Martiros Sarian Statue in Yerevan honors Martiros Sarian (1880–1972), one of Armenia’s most celebrated painters and a defining figure in modern Armenian art. Set in a small square near the Opera district, the monument was installed in 1986 and is noted for its striking white marble. Its location is culturally fitting: the surrounding park is known as a gathering place for local painters who display and sell their work, linking the statue to Yerevan’s living art scene. More than a memorial, the site reflects Sarian’s enduring importance in Armenian cultural identity and makes a meaningful stop for visitors exploring the city’s artistic heart.
