This is a colourful painting on silk of peacocks in Armenian tradition. In symbolism the peacock is a symbol of integrity and beauty. In history, myth, legend and lore, the peacock symbolises Nobility, Holiness, Guidance, Protection and Watchfulness. Christians adopted the symbol of the peacock to represent immortality.
