Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Khachkar

Reason: Khachkars are a highly developed art form, unique to Armenians, and this is a beautiful specimen, and in my opinion, well captured.
Proposed caption: An example of a Khachkar ("Խաչքար" in Armenian, meaning "cross-stone"), an intricately carved cross usually intended as a tombstone or a memorial. This khachkar is found at the 13th c. Haghartsin Monastery in Armenia. The golden age of khachkar carving was between the 12th and 14th centuries, though khachkars continue to be produced to this day.
