Vintage Embossed Copper Enamel Wall Decoration of Sardarapat 1918, Home Décor, Armenian Battle
Antique vintage embossed copper enamel wall decoration made in Armenia in the Soviet era 1980s or even early in the 1970s which evokes the Armenian memorial and battle of Sardarapat 1918 with Mount Ararat and Mother Armenia.
Sardarapat Memorial is a symbol of pride and survival, the Sardarapat Memorial marks the place of Armenia's successful last-ditch effort to save the nation from obliteration at the hands of the Turks in the Battle of Sardarapat on May 22–26, 1918. Against tremendous odds, and during the haunting backdrop of genocide during the previous few years, Armenia's makeshift army rebuffed the Turkish troops and safeguarded the small portion of historic Armenia, what became the current republic as it stands today. The historic battle not only halted the Ottoman advance into the rest of Armenia, but also prevented the complete destruction of the Armenian nation. In the words of Christopher J. Walker, had the Armenians lost this battle, "it is perfectly possible that the word Armenia would have henceforth denoted only an antique geographical term".
Mother Armenia is a female personification of Armenia is a symbol of strength and resilience. Her most public visual rendering is a monumental statue in Victory Park overlooking the capital city of Yerevan, stands as a powerful representation of the indomitable spirit of the Armenian people.
The Mother Armenia statue symbolises peace through strength. It can remind viewers of some of the prominent female figures in Armenian history, such as Sose Mayrig and others, who took up arms to help their husbands in their clashes with Turkish troops and Kurdish irregulars.
