Description
Summary:The article deals with one of many regional architectural traditions of Russia. In this period, about ten churches were built in Kargopol and its surroundings, very few as compared with other regions. None of this buildings have ever been an object of detailed research. The churches represent different architectural trends and were constructed possibly by different building teams, the author argues. Nevertheless, each of them borrows something from previous Kargopol architectural tradition. The cathedral bell tower (1772-1778) is the only example of fine Neoclassical taste, whereas all churches are characterized by old-fashioned Mannerist and even Medieval features. The author concludes, that the Kargopol architecture remains the most conservative regional school in Russia, some buildings still representing Post-Byzantine tradition in the Age of Enlightenment.
