Neorussian Style in Architecture

For Browsing

This direction in architecture became widespread at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries and is characterized by a turn to motifs of ancient Russian architecture with the aim of reviving national traditions and the distinctiveness of Russian culture. Its distinction from the closely related "Russian" (or "pseudo-Russian") style of the same period lies in moving away from crude copying and even borrowing of elements in favor of generalizing forms and subtle stylization of prototypes.
