    The one in Gyumri is sexier. And more peaceful.
    And topless.

    Funny. I've been to Gyumri, but I didn't see her?

      Yes, thanks, great work! Whoever designed the card probably drew the faces from photographs. Any identification for the injured man with the flag?

            Sure.

            The one in Yerevan I don't like. Looks like a Joan of Arc wannabe.

              He could be Father Komitas

                As a literate, or knowledgeable and being in Armenia, Iran, Turkey and Azerbaijan so many times, could you explain to us please what these pictures has to do with ” How do Armenian feel about Mount Ararat?”?

                  You are pathetic. My posts were all as a response to the OP's question or leading off from posts made by others. And they were interesting. Maybe you should get off your arse and try to answer the question of the OP yourself.

It is something of a pan-Armenian symbol, but how would an Armenian in 19th century Edirne and his/her descendants view it compared to a 19th century Armenian from the Ararat valley and his/her descendants?

                    Why do Armenians from the former Soviet Union see Nairi as a masculine name, while the diaspora see it as a feminine?
                    I guess the purpose of using Ararat as an national image was to try and find something that all Armenians could identify with, regardless of where they lived. Here's a sheet music cover that was printed in Constantinople, around the 1900s, so the imagery was recognised by Armenians living there.
