| Publisher Description: Russian architecture has since Medieval times reflected Russia's history directly. Starting when the powerful nation was the tiny state of Kieven Rus' and culminating in modern Russia, this book examines their architectural works and its relation to the nation's state of affairs. It provides a timeline of Russia's main historical periods, their evolution and impact on the vision of Russia. The biographies of the architects included in the book are the author's attempt to enrich the reader's experience by letting them get a feel for the environment the architects build in. |
