Pyramids are also illustrated in the paintings referring to the ancient times of Armenia!
While focusing on Armenian pyramids, we should also refer to a very rare paintings from a 19th century
Italian artists. In Venice, several Italian painters, by the order of the
Mkhitarian Seminary, have painted several pictures of the ancient Armenian
kings in order to illustrate a book on Armenian history, and in their paintings
one can spot pyramids and burg-shaped hill in the background. As it is known,
when creating paintings for a historical books, the painters usually do a
thorough research and enrich the paintings with the artifacts and structures of
the period which they are illustrating, therefore this can be another prospect
for consideration about the availability of pyramids in Armenia.
