Yerevan. Armenia - a photo on Flickriver

Yerevan. Armenia

Sergei Parajanov House Museum

When my friends and I were leaving the museum, we met this man in a small dark corridor. It was quite dark in there. Light was falling from the open doors of the entrance and the opposite exit to the courtyard where there is a small cafe. His face seemed to me incredibly handsome, wise and kind. I stopped and told him he had a very handsome face. I asked if I could take a picture of him. He smiled very easily and allowed me to take the picture. My camera was in my backpack. I was afraid that the first magical moment would quickly disappear and I took the photo with my iPhone.
Already later I realized that I didn't recognize his name.

Sergei Parajanov's talent, his force of life, despite the imprisonment and bullying in the Soviet Union, now gives a little strength to me as well. I have watched his film The Color of Pomegranates many times. Every frame in it is perfect. It's a visual aesthetic. You don't need to understand any language but one - the language of poetry
