Architecture of the second half of the 19th century

In the architecture of the second half of the 19th century
classicism finally outlived itself.
With the development of capitalism, changes have taken place in urban planning. Scientific and
technical discoveries in industrial production, construction of iron
roads, streamlining the transport network of cities, street lighting led to
the search for a new structure of cities and the emergence of new structures: railway stations,
factories, plants, administrative buildings, sports facilities, trade
buildings, etc.
Architects were looking for changes in the past, in styles: Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque. This
led to the dominance of the eclectic style.

IN mid-nineteenth- early XX centuries in palace architecture
a direction appeared that proclaimed the “Russian-Byzantine” style. For example, in the facades of the Bolshoi
Kremlin Palace in Moscow (architect K. Ton)
mechanically combined techniques of composition of that time
with details of ancient Russian and Byzantine architecture.

Facade of the Grand Kremlin Palace in Moscow

Central facade of the Moscow Polytechnic Museum

The third direction was based on
imitation of elegant Moscow
architecture of the middle of the 17th century, but created
dry, pretentious architecture, for example in
Moscow - building Historical Museum
(architects V. Sherwood, A. Semenov) with
complicated composition of the facade, in
whose architectural divisions
17th century decor motifs are mechanically introduced.

The building of the Historical Museum in Moscow

At this time, tent completions come into fashion,
turrets, patterned decorations, figured architraves. This
can be observed in the example of such buildings as:
City Duma in Moscow (architect D.N. Chichagov), and
Upper trading rows (architect A.N. Pomerantsev).

Russian architecture of the first half of the 19th century

Andreyan Dmitrievich Zakharov (August 8, 1761 - August 27, 1811), one of the most prominent Russian architects, creator of the Petrograd Admiralty. A native of Petrograd, Zakharov was sent to younger age academic school at the Imperial Academy of Arts, the course in which he graduated on September 3, 1782 with a large gold medal, production in the 14th grade and with a business trip abroad. Notable works: The building of the Admiralty in St. Petersburg.

Zakharov rebuilt the Admiralty almost completely, leaving only an elegant tower with a spire. The fortifications near the shipyard were destroyed, and a boulevard was laid out in their place (now the Alexander Garden is located on this site). Having retained the configuration of the plan of an already existing building, Zakharov created a new, grandiose (the length of the main facade is 407 m) structure, giving it a majestic architectural appearance and emphasizing its central position in the city (as mentioned above, the main highways converge to it with three beams). Architectural ensemble The Admiralty consists of two U-shaped buildings (internal and external). Between them was the Admiralty ditch. The outer building was occupied by the administrative offices of the sea and river fleet of Russia, while the inner building still had production workshops.

Andrei Nikiforovich Voronikhin (1759 - 1814). The son of a serf. Andrei Voronikhin was born into a Russian-Permyak family of serfs Count A. S. Stroganov, a former for a long time Petersburg Academy of Arts. He studied painting in the workshop of the Ural icon painter Gavrila Yushkov. The talent of the young man attracted the attention of Stroganov, and in 1777 the count sent Voronikhin to study in Moscow. Presumably Voronikhin's teachers were V.I. Bazhenov and M.F. Kazakov. From 1779 Voronikhin worked in St. Petersburg. Notable work: Kazan Cathedral.

Kazan Cathedral is one of the largest churches in St. Petersburg, made in the Empire style. Built on Nevsky Prospekt in 1801-1811 by the architect A. N. Voronikhin to store the honored list miraculous icon Mother of God Kazanskaya. After the Patriotic War of 1812, it acquired the significance of a monument of Russian military glory. In 1813, commander M.I. Kutuzov was buried here and the keys to the captured cities and other military trophies were placed.

Carlo di Giovanni (Karl Ivanovich) Rossi was born (1775-1849) in Naples. Since 1787, together with his mother, the ballerina Gertrude Rossi, and his stepfather, an outstanding ballet dancer Charles Le Pic, lived in Russia, in St. Petersburg, where his famous stepfather was invited. Notable Works: Russian Museum with Art Square Palace Square General Staff building

The main building of the museum is located in the city center, on Arts Square. It was built according to the design of the famous architect C.
