Smyrne / Izmir : voir l’histoire de ces Arméniens devenus grecs en fuyant le génocide
ODA | Silva Avedisian Collection – Athens
Our new family collection is mostly composed of items received from Smyrna/Izmir.
They belong to the family collection of Silva Avedisian. Two women stand out in Silva‘s story- her great grandmother Yeghis and her grandmother Vosgi. Both were born in Izmir. The two migrated to Greece in the early 1920s. They started a new life there amidst difficult conditions.
Silva meticulously preserves these items of memory. They are vestiges of a rich former life.
