Pamiatniki promyshlennoi arkhitektury Sankt-Peterburga (Masterpieces of St. Petersburg industrial architecture)
Moscow: Severnyi palomnik, 2020 (2nd enlarged edition). Sewn cl. The authors survey the buildings built in St. Petersburg as factories and designed to produce efficiently and accommodate large work forces. From the mid eighteenth-century Imperial Porcelain Factory to masterpieces of avant-garde architecture the monograph illustrates how practical urban functions shape the cityscape, making an impact on the aesthetic impression of different neighborhoods. Thanks to the publisher's high production values— quality illustrations and a generous layout — the visual documents (contemporary and archival photos, drawings and plans, and maps) convey clearly the character of the architecture. 270 p., 29 cm, approx. 200 color and b/w illus., Rus.
