Hi Steemit. My name is Pavel. I was always interested in art and architecture cities, which is why I recently moved to Saint Petersburg.
Petersburg it is impossible to describe the man who never was in this city. In my blog I will show you the city's architecture 1700-1800 years and as much as possible try to convey the atmosphere of the streets.
About Steemit I learned recently. I really liked that there are no boundaries between countries! You can share and discuss their ideas and thoughts with the world. So here I am!
A bit of history about St. Petersburg
For the construction of St. Peterburga 1 Peter invited artists from France, Italy and many others. and each of them had to teach a few Russian. Thus, almost all of the first architects who built St. Petersburg, were foreigners, who came at the invitation of the Emperor and entered into a contract with him. That is why among the names of the first architects of St. Petersburg so much the non-Russian: Domenico Trezzini, Carlo Bartolomeo Rastrelli, Johann Braunstein, Francesco Fontana, Johann Gottfried schadel, Georg Johann Mattarnovi, Jean-Baptiste Alexandre Le blond.
