Alexander

Nagralyan

Hello!

My name is Anton Nagralin, and I’m delighted to present this website devoted to the book “Living History” – a collection of photographs and stories about the life and work of my father, Alexander Nagralyan.

My father was a man in love with the history of our country. His archive is not simply a collection of thousands of pictures – it’s also a collection of moments frozen in time, through which one can grasp the spirit and destiny of an entire era. Over time, memory fades and history becomes overgrown with new interpretations. This book was created to preserve a living testimony to the past.

“Living History” is now available in seven languages: Russian, English, Chinese, Arabic, French, Greek and German. It is a bridge between cultures, enabling readers around the world to experience that unique historical era.

My father said: “These pictures portray the history of my country and my life”. I invite you to take a look at these pictures and live those moments together with us.

Enjoy your journey into the past!
