Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the development of the French colony in Moscow, centered around Saint Louis des Francais. Founded in 1789, largely due to Catherine II's encouragement of trade and the signing of a commercial treaty in 1786, the church quickly became a hub for over 48 French merchants to gather. The author traces the history of the church and colony through the lives and businesses of these merchants, followed by the acquisition and development of the various properties associated with the church and its growing community. The author provides a vivid and lively account of this significant period for French influence in Moscow and the expansion of their cultural and commercial activities in Russia.

Unpaginated. 27 pages, 25 unnumbered leaves of collotype (phototypie) plates.OCLC Number / Unique Identifier:319705355.Facing the Kremlin, the northeast side of Red Square is occupied by the famous Goum department store. Chosen during a competition launched in 1888, the architect Alexander Nikanorovich Pomantsev replaced the shopping arcades which occupied this location with a large building whose monumental facade is clad in Finnish granite, marble and sandstone. With its multiple decorative details borrowed from traditional practice, its design evokes Russian architecture of the 16th and 17th centuries and illustrates the pseudo-Russian taste that Pomantsev was fond of and which was also illustrated in the Igoumov house in the same years. Part of a desire to move away from European academic architecture, this taste intended to revive national practices. With its two small spiers framing the central pavilion (visible on the right in the photograph), the facade of the Goum also refers to the National History Museum, built from 1874 to 1883 on the same square in the same pseudo-Russian style.The interior, on the other hand, has a completely different appearance and is covered by a glass and metal structure which echoes the Crystal Palace built in London for the 1851 exhibition. These "new passages", as the legend calls them on the glass plate, became in 1921, by the will of Lenin, the first Soviet department store before housing administration offices in the 1930s then returning to their store function in 1953.…
