EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of Armenian Catholic monks in the courtyard of their monastery on San Lazzaro Island in Venice, Italy. Established in 1717, the monastery, officially known as the Armenian Monastery of San Lazzaro degli Armeni, has been a beacon of Armenian culture and religious tradition in the heart of Venice for over three centuries. The monks in this image, dressed in their distinctive vestments, are seen engaging in various activities in the tranquil courtyard. The arches and archways surrounding them add to the monastery's unique architectural charm, reflecting the rich history and cultural exchange that has taken place on the island. San Lazzaro Island, located in the Venetian Lagoon, has been a place of refuge for Armenian communities since the 15th century. The monastery was founded by the Mekhitarist Order, a monastic congregation dedicated to the education and preservation of Armenian culture. Over the centuries, the monastery has served as a center for Armenian studies, publishing, and the arts. The photograph, taken circa 1920, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the monastic community during the 1920s. The monks' devotion and commitment to their faith are evident in their peaceful demeanor and the harmonious atmosphere of the monastery. This image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Armenian community in Venice and the unique role that San Lazzaro Island has played in preserving Armenian culture and tradition.
