Arkhitektor Nikolai L'vov. Khramy, doma, usad'by epokhi klassitsizma / Architect Nikolai Lvov. Churches, Houses, Estates in the Epoch of Classicism
Moscow: Muzei arkhitektury im. A.V. Shchuseva / Kuchkovo pole, 2015. Sewn pb. This catalogue of a exhibition at the SHCHUSEV Museum of Architecture restores to a prominent position in art and architectural history a great builder and designer of the late eighteenth century. Many works have been lost such as the Voronovo estate, burnt down during Napoleon's Invasion in 1812, but Lvov's sketches show the originality and beauty of his work. Details of interior design like the floral pattern on a ceramic stove show his formidable talent as a draftsman and the care he took over every aspect of design. Profusely illustrated with photos and drawings from the museum's collections. 175 p., approx. 150 color and b/w illus., Rus. Item #1342
