Significado
The sky on a clear day.
Contexto cultural
The blue sky is a symbol of peace on the national flag. Armenians often wish each other 'peaceful skies' as a standard blessing. Yerevan is known as the 'Pink City' due to its stone, but the contrast with the deep blue sky is a major part of its aesthetic identity. For the Armenian Diaspora, the 'blue sky of the homeland' is a powerful nostalgic image found in many songs and poems. Martiros Saryan, a famous Armenian painter, is known for his vibrant use of blue to depict the Armenian sky.
