Ivan Aivazovsky – Night at Gurzof (1891)

“Ivan Aivazovsky was born on 29 July 1817 in the city of Feodosia (Theodosia), Crimea, Russian Empire. In the baptismal records of the local St. Sargis Armenian Apostolic Church, Aivazovsky was listed as Hovhannes, son of Gevorg Aivazian. During his study at the Imperial Academy of Arts, he was known in Russian as Ivan Gaivazovsky. He became known as Aivazovsky since c.1840, while in Italy. He signed an 1844 letter with an Italianized rendition of his name: “Giovani Aivazovsky”.

His father, Konstantin, (c.1765–1840), was an Armenian merchant from the Polish region of Galicia. His family had migrated to Europe from Western Armenia in the 18th century. After numerous familial conflicts, Konstantin left Galicia for Moldavia, later moving to Bukovina, before settling in Feodosia in the early 1800s. He was initially known as Gevorg Aivazian (Haivazian or Haivazi), but he changed his last name to Gaivazovsky by adding the Slavic suffix “-sky”.

Aivazovsky’s mother, Ripsime, was a Feodosia Armenian. The couple had five children—three daughters and two sons. Aivazovsky’s elder brother, Gabriel, was a prominent historian and an Armenian Apostolic archbishop.”
