Description
“Old Moscow” by Mikhail Ivanovich Pyliaev is a unique encyclopedia-guide to the very Moscow that legends were already telling about in the 19th century. Unlike imperial Petersburg, Moscow has remained a royal city, preserving a craving for a spacious, luxurious life—where the home of any nobleman was like a miniature court of an absolute ruler. This is a monument to that now legendary era when the city’s appearance and the unique Moscow atmosphere were determined by famous historical figures—Novikov, Rumyantsev, Suvorov, Orlov, and representatives of the noblest families—Naryshkins, Sheremetevs, Yusupovs, Golitsyns. They built palaces and laid out parks, maintained theaters, and held festivities where the whole city truly rejoiced from the bottom of its heart for more than one day.
The stories gathered in this book are rarely found in historical works. They are unforgettable and vivid moments of life, as they were remembered by contemporaries of those events. Sad, instructive, funny, fascinating—everything in them is real, just as real as the portraits of the main figures, the pictures of Moscow life, and the views of Moscow and its surroundings with which this edition is richly illustrated.
