Martiros Saryan was born in 1880 in Nakhichevan-on-Don. However, his historical fatherland - Armenia, occupies a major place in his works. Experts indicate influence of his favorite artists Matisse and Gauguin and his immediate teachers Valentin Serov and Konstantin Korovin on his canvases. The phrase 'clear, sonorous color' is usually used next to the surname of Saryan. Russian, French painting and Armenian art traditions interweaving has resulted in the birth of a unique Saryan style.
