The first stone hipped roof temple and the origin of hipped roof architecture
Attention!
The following text was translated from the Russian original by the computer program
and has not yet been edited.
So it can be used only for general introduction.
1.
Until recently, the first
ancient Russian stone temple was considered a marquee Church of the Ascension
in Kolomna (Fig. 1), which has indisputable chronicle the date of completion -
1532 god1. The architect of this church definitely is not installed. SS Pod'yapol'skii, devoting a
special issue issledovanie2, believed that they had Petroc Minor (Peter
Fryazin), probably arrived in Moscow in 1528 godu3. Accordingly, the researcher
dated the Church of the Assumption 1529-1532 godami4.

Kolomna.
Unlike the Church of the
Ascension in Kolomna, temples Alexander settlement (including hip Trinity, now Pokrovskaya Church - Fig. 2) the undisputed chronicle dates do not have. In the second half of the
twentieth century, they were dated the following manner:
- Pokrovskii, now Troitsky
Cathedral (we will henceforth call him unqualified Pokrovsky) based on the
recording of the Trinity Chronicle about the consecration of the temple (not
specified, stone or wood) and the arrival of Vasily III, the Grand Palace in
the Alexander slobode5 considered built in 1513 year;
- Hip Trinity, now Pokrovsky,
the church at the Palace "(we will henceforth refer to it without
reservation the Trinity) has been transferred to the second construction period
Sloboda (" Tsar's "time of Ivan IV, estimated to 1570 m year) 6;
- Assumption Church
conventionally been dated by the same 1570 mi years as Trinity;
- Crucifixion tower (up to 1710
- the church Alexei mitropolita7 - Fig. 3) also dated 1570 mi years. Once in the 1940's Polonsky
found inside her earlier stolpoobraznoe zdanie8, recently began to refer to the
first construction period Sloboda and date, as St. Basil's Cathedral, 1513 year
(in fact we are dealing with two different buildings, Therefore, we will for
simplicity call the Crucifixion tower in its present form, and the Church of
Metropolitan Alexei - stolpoobraznoe building, located within nee9 - Fig. 4).

In 1980-1990-s series of
excavations and soundings conducted in the suburb of Alexander V. Kavelmaherom,
identified a fundamental fact: St. Basil's Cathedral, hip Trinity Church, Assumption Church and the church-bell Alexis the Metropolitan, were built in the same
building periode10.
Architectural and archaeological
arguments VV Kavelmahera was fairly well received by all, without exception,
researchers as ischerpyvayuschaya11, and inevitably the question arose about
the correction of earlier dates.
V. Kavelmaher, referring to the
text of the Trinity Chronicle 12 and the proximity of the first style of temples
of the Alexander settlement to the style of the Kremlin cathedrals of Ivan III
and Vasily III13 (this stylistic affinity was noted even A.I.Nekrasovym14),
dated the Church of the Protection, Trinity, Assumption and Alexei
Metropolitan first construction period Sloboda - early 1510's. The second construction period -
1570-s - V. Kavelmaher attributed only to the restructuring of the Metropolitan
Church of Alexei and extension to the dining hall of Trinity Church in the
cellar and podklete15.
In the late 1990's and early
2000's point of view V. Kavelmahera was questioned SS Pod'yapol'skii and
A.L.Batalovym16. Supporting the classification of
the Pokrovsky Cathedral, Trinity Church, Church of the Assumption and Church of Metropolitan Alexei periodu17 one construction, the researchers were dating all
these monuments godami18 1570 mi.
Detailed analysis of all the
arguments VV Kavelmahera, SS Podyapolsky and AL Batalov was devoted to a
special study of the author of this stati19. Here, only show that the main
argument in favor of dating VV Kavelmahera is the fact that a significant time
lag (several decades) between the building the bell tower of Metropolitan
Alexis and its restructuring in 1570-ies. Studies conducted by the author
of this article in the early 2000's godov20 showed that:
- Masonry, mortar, style and
execution of the decoration of the church and Metropolitan Alexis Crucifixion
bell totally different. In the Church of Metropolitan
Alexis (as in the Church of the Protection, Trinity and Assumption), we see a
"soft", "warm" masonry, characteristic of the brick
buildings of the Moscow Kremlin foreign XV and XVI centuries, and St. Peter the
Metropolitan of Vysokopetrovsky Monastery ( 1514-1518
years, Fig. 5). Characteristic and mortar - with
extremely high binding capacity, with a negligible content of lime sand and
other impurities. Numerous white stone decorations
in the Sloboda, and the Kremlin were carved so that it seems like a stone
"breathes". Brick inlay temples Sloboda,
like St. Peter the Metropolitan, was covered with gesso "under the white
stone". In contrast to all the listed
buildings, Crucifixion tower is built from the "dry" bricks,
crumbling easily to a solution with a high admixture of sand. From the same brick on the same
solution, built the Cathedral of the Intercession on the Ditch. The white-stone inlay
Crucifixion bell also carved, as at the Cathedral of the Intercession on the
Ditch - rigid, geometric, "dry". And in the belfry Crucifixion,
and the Cathedral of the Intercession on the Ditch the builders used along with
iron bonds of wood. In the Church of Metropolitan Alexei, as in the Church of the Protection, Trinity and Assumption, all
connections are made exclusively of iron of high quality;

Fig. 5. St. Peter the Metropolitan in
high-Petrovsky monastery.
- The windows of the upper tiers
of the surviving church Alexei Metropolitan has been made (and very accurately)
is another form before obstroyki walls of the future Crucifixion bell. It is doubtful that shortly
after the construction would require considerable work to give the windows a
fundamentally new form;
- At the time obstroyki pylons
Church Metropolitan Alexei managed to "grow into the ground" about
half a meter. Theoretically, it could happen
within a few years (in the case of targeted podsypok soil), but it is extremely
unlikely. Normal time is so significant
"growing" buildings in the land - at least several decades;
- At the junction of walls and
piers Crucifixion bell at the open vetting fragments white stone plinth and
brick decor oblevkashennogo church Alexei Metropolitan traces of weathering,
which could have time to appear only in a few decades.
Thus, as the reorganization of
the Church of Metropolitan Alexis (ie the construction of the bell tower of Crucifixion in its present form) clearly dates from the second construction period
Sloboda - 1570 mi over the years, we have to date its construction of the first
construction period - 1510-mi for years. And since none of the
researchers there is no doubt proven VV Kavelmaherom fact that the Church of
the Protection, Trinity and Assumption Alexandrov Sloboda were constructed in
the same building period, the last dated as 1510 years mi.
From this it follows that the
first stone church marquee in Russia was Trinity Church in the Alexander
settlement.
To quote what he wrote in
connection with the VV Kavelmaher: "The proposed assignment of the Church
of the Holy Trinity to the first decades of the XVI century. undermines, at first glance, the
very foundations of the theory of Russian tent architecture. But is it really so strict and
perfect this theory? Thus, the first stone church
marquee in Russia is known for some time "vice-president of the Church of
the Holy Trinity at the Palace - Church of the Ascension in Kolomna, built by
the same Churchwarden and with the same purpose - as a cold palace temple in
his new residence outside Moscow. In the history of Russian
architecture of the temple was a work in terms of its formal perfection, unique
and inimitable. However, this process of
building stone tent churches in Moscow in a number of reasons interrupted. The mass construction of tent
churches resumed only in 50-ies. XVI century. - All at once, spontaneously, in
a remarkably advanced and perfect form, nothing to do, however, with the Church
of the Ascension is not available. Breaking new construction with a
constructive idea and proposed a prototype plastic still somehow possible to
explain, but how to explain it perfectly mature, "sustained", an
independent form of a new series of monuments? After all, if you follow this
theory, it turns out that almost twenty years after the first break were built
such masterpieces as the central pillar of the Pokrovsky Cathedral vaulted to
the Ditch (1554-1561 years). And do not come down to us in the Cathedral of Sts
pyatishatrovy Staritsa (1557-1561 years.). You can, of course, assume that
both buildings built Barmah genius "and his companions. But who then built another hip
masterpiece - do not come down to us in the church of St. Sergius
Trinity-Epiphany Compound in the Kremlin (1558)? Or not so perfect in terms of
form, but surely made reliquary hip-Tomb of the Patriarchs in the
Rostov-Avraamievo Epiphany Monastery in Rostov Veliky (1554)? And who created a constructive
rough, but defiantly bold hip-A cross design of the Transfiguration Cathedral
in Solovki? Who built dvustolpny's cross-hip
Annunciation Cathedral in the family castle in Solvychegodsk Stroganoff (1557)?
So how to understand the source
of evidence about the construction of the Pokrovsky Cathedral "with the
chapels" - "different samples and translations? If we accept this theory, would
have to admit that the Russian builders had no prior experience in the
construction of temples tent! It flatters the national pride,
as it implies our ability to architects of genius spontaneous creativity, but
it is - "bad theory". Meanwhile, architectural forms
Intercession Cathedral on the Ditch back not to the Church of the Ascension in
Kolomna (the latter refers only vimpergov and casings), but primarily to the
two monuments stolpoobraznym Aleksandrova Sloboda - domed church Alexei
metropolitan and hip Trinity Church. If Trinity Church, as many
people think, too late monument, it is compared to St. Basil's Cathedral - the
ugly and regressive phenomenon. That is the verdict rendered her
history of architecture. However, the monument is too
fresh and original, too awkward naive as to simply be creative failure unknown
Italian architect. And because its methods of
dating in the absence of other must be strictly archaeological 21.
The objectives of this study did
not include consideration of the entire process of the genesis of the stone
architecture of the tent (we restrict ourselves to questions of its origin), so
in addition to the above, VV Kavelmaherom only note that a later date the
Church of the Ascension in comparison with the Trinity Church in any case not detract from the Kolomna monument to Russian
architecture. In this temple, along with a
tent wall pylons were used, allowing to construct a huge building of
unprecedented proportions, with "flying" architectonics.
Trinity Church of the Ascension in comparison with the small
"touch down" and, as repeatedly demonstrated and V.V.Kavelmaher22,
not so perfect in engineering terms. But between the erection of
these temples have passed fifteen or twenty relatively calm and peaceful (not
least) years. Over the years, and engineering,
and construction equipment could not make a significant step forward. Probably, and raising to
1510-1520-s unknown tent churches, and an invitation from Italy to build a church of the Assumption is not only Petroc Minor, but also other highly
qualified engineers.
2.
Now the question arises whether
we can identify the architect who built the Trinity Church in the suburb of
Alexander, though with the same degree of certainty with which the SS
Pod'yapol'skii identified for the Church of the Ascension in Kolomna authorship
Petroc Minor.
V. Kavelmaher thought that,
having finished in 1508 a Moscow court, Vasily III «flung the liberated
building frames in Sloboda," and that "a fortified complex of the
Tsar's court (in the Sloboda - SZ) has been erected just after the Big Kremlin Palace in Moscow by
Italian architects Vasily III, and was built about five years - from 1508-1509
to 1513 23. About that authorship of the
first churches Sloboda belongs to one of the architects of Italian origin,
known under the name Aleviz researcher did not write, although it would seem,
this conclusion is very likely to be of the following facts:
- In 1508 Aleviz Fryazin
finished work on the Moscow grand palace, and Aleviz new - over the Archangel
soborom24 (the question of identity and constructions of both architects, we
consider in detail below);
- In 1513 in the Alexander settlement was completed on the Grand Palace and St. Basil's Cathedral was
consecrated;
- In 1514 the Grand Duke had
commanded one of Aleviz erect in Moscow on 11 churches, including St. Peter the
Metropolitan of Vysokopetrovsky Monastery and Church of the Annunciation in the
Old Vagankove25.
It is unlikely that such a
Bilateral and a chain of dates and buildings could be a coincidence. Thus, authorship Petroc Minor
against the Church of the Ascension in Kolomna S. Pod'yapol'skii deduced only
from the time gap between the probable arrival of the architect in Moscow in
1528 godu26 and the beginning of construction of China-Cities in 1534 godu27.
But as the temples of the
Alexander settlement, the SS Pod'yapol'skii objected to the assumption of their
construction by Italian architects, because, according to the researcher,
"architecturally slepleno it all so haphazard and so is incompatible with
the precision of the geometric structure inherent in the architecture of the
Renaissance, that is hard to understand how
you can even hypothetically attributed to the cathedral creation of Italian
architect 28.
From these observations, SS
Podyapolsky hard to disagree. But are the positions of VV
Kavelmahera and S. Podyapolsky mutually exclusive? After all, VV Kavelmaher wrote
that the Trinity Church "awkward naive" and construction of the tent,
"paradoxical" in 1929.
Unfortunately, the rule in the
history of architecture of the last quarter of XX century the theory PA
Rappoport, prescriptive Tracking Construction brigades at full strength (from
the architect to ordinary masons) 30, has created a completely false
stereotype: the architect "supposed" to move at the head of the farm
with construction site to
construction site and personally go into all the details of the construction
implementation of its buildings. Accordingly, any blemishes (the
more "naive") design makes the authorship of highly qualified
architect (not to such a level as Aleviz).
But in fact the architect in any
case was not obliged to be constantly present on the project: its main tasks
was to develop the project and receive a churchwarden of his realizatsiyu31. And in this case, the first
churchwarden temples Alexander Sloboda - Vasily III - was in Moscow and came in
her yard in the Sloboda only in 1513 godu32.
Consequently, Aleviz if he was
the author of monuments Sloboda, still had to reside in Moscow, when Grand
Prince yard. No Aleviz the court could lead
to problems with the financing of the project, and the loss of the post of the
court architect, for which at all times had to constantly fight.
Thus, Aleviz could either
occasionally come to the Alexander suburb during construction, or even the
first time to see their churches already built, "entered" with Vasily
III in Sloboda in 1513. And before that, according to
his design work contractors are able to tolerate any mistakes - including those
that are indicated VV Kavelmaher and S.S.Podyapolskiy33.
Consequently, the end Aleviz in
1508 working in the Kremlin, the building of a princely palace and Pokrovsky
Cathedral Sloboda in 1513 and the Order of Vasily III in 1514, one of Aleviz
build 11 churches provide a reasonable basis to believe that the author of the
Protection of the temples, Trinity, Assumption and Alexei
Alexandrov metropolitan suburb is one of the Italian architects, known under
the name Aleviz.
And, despite some minor
technical occurring blemishes, Vasily III was satisfied with the work of the
architect - is proved by the fact that the Grand Duke in 1514 commissioned him
to build eleven new churches.
The idea of a princely
palace-temple ensemble Sloboda fully consistent with the scope of any Aleviz -
the simultaneous construction of very large for that time, the complex of
buildings, it is absolutely unique, not like one another, but united by a
common "Country" style (as opposed to "capital" style, realized in the stone
Kremlin Palace and the Cathedral of the Archangel).
And it is not surprising that in
the future, along with another wonderful piece of Italian architects - the
Kremlin's Archangel Cathedral - a model for numerous imitations (often eclipses
the original) was the first stone church tent - Troitskaya34.
3.
Investigate the question which
of the two architects of Italian origin, known under the name Aleviz, built
temples Alexander settlement.
First of all, let's see what we
know about these wizards. First of them (who arrived in Moscow in 1494) is traditionally called Aleviz Fryazino or simply Aleviz, the second (who
arrived ten years later) - New Aleviz. But, as we shall soon see, this
tradition leads to unwanted contamination, so we will call these architects as
in the XIX century, known namesakes - Aleviz 1 st and 2 nd Aleviz.
About Aleviz 1 st Chronicle reported: "The Priidosha ambassadors of the Grand Duke of Moscow, Manuilov
Aggelov Grek da Danila Mamyrov that sent them to the prince of the great
masters in Venice and Medioli their set privedosha on Moscow Aleviz Wizard
stennago and ward and Peter pushechnika and various artists 35. How to set up modern Italian
researchers, we are talking about Aloisio da Karezano (Carcano) 36.
With built in Moscow Aleviz 1-y
from 1494 to 1499 years, we do not know, but it looks convincing version
V.P.Vygolova37: he replaced the deceased in 1493 by Pietro Antonio Solari at
the head of the Kremlin's fortification.
Next annals mention of Aleviz
1-m due to the fact that in 1499 "Great Prince commanded zalozhiti your
yard, and loft kamenya kirpichnya, and underneath the cellar, and glaciers in
the old courtyard of the Annunciation, but the wall of stone from your yard to
Borovitskia strelnitsi; a master Aleviz
Fryazin Hail Mediolama 38. This building was completed in
1508, when Vasily III moved to dvorets39 built. What we are talking precisely
about Aleviz 1-m, is confirmed by reference to "hail Mediolama" (Milan).
In 1504 in Moscow with the embassy Dmitry Ralev and Mitrophan Karacharov arrived, another group
masterov40. On the way to Moscow that the
embassy had been detained in the Crimea Khan Mengli-Girei obliging the masters
for some time to work on the construction Bakhchsarai dvortsa41. And holidays after the masters
in Moscow, Khan has written to Ivan III: «A letter filed shu Architect Aleviz,
Menlo Gireiev word ... I am your brother took a shortcut, poshol Aleviz master,
Velma good artist, not like other masters, Velma great master ... That's how my honor and my
brother's word is almost, that Fryazino Aleviz complain, Thou knowest 42.
None of the researchers had no
doubt (and no doubt we will) that this "Velma great master" (we call
it Aleviz 2-m) and have the same Aleviz new, which, according to chronicles,
the data in 1508 completed the construction of the cathedral's and the Church of the Nativity
of John the Baptist in Borovitskiye vorot43. In favor of this interpretation
and clarification of "new" (relatively Aleviz 1 st), and extremely honored the Grand Order (construction of ancestral tombs), and the similarity of
portals Bakhchsarai Italianate palace and the cathedral's.
More in the annals of Aleviz 2-y
as "Aleviz New" is not mentioned. Attempts by several Italian
researchers identified this with the famous Venetian architect, sculptor and
carver Alvise di Lamberti Montanyana44, although a broad response in the modern
scientific and popular literature, are only unconfirmed (and, as we shall soon
see, is very questionable) hypothesis.
In 1508, "the great prince
ordered round the city of Moscow ditch Delatite stone and brick repairs and
ponds around his castle Aleviz Fryazino '45. Annals of lead and more specific
information about these works, dating back in 1507 and completed in 1519 -
built walls, towers, dams and ditch along the river Neglinnoy46.
And finally, in 1514, Vasily III
commanded to build 11 churches in Moscow, "and all those churches was a
master Aleviz Fryazin 47. This documentary data Aleviz
should be closed.
Until the 1970's in the history
of architecture dominated by the following view: 1 st Aleviz built just west of strengthening the Kremlin along Neglinnoy48 and Aleviz 2 nd - all
others are referred to in the preceding chronicle construction of communications
(the Grand Kremlin Palace and all the temples, including and incorporated in 1514) 49. Accordingly, Aleviz 2-y regarded
as the greatest architect of the era, and Aleviz 1-y was reduced to a secondary
role (compared with Solari) fortification.
In the last quarter of the
twentieth century, this "extreme" point of view has been challenged
and S.S.Podyapolskim50 V.P.Vygolovym51. Both researchers attributed the Grand Kremlin Palace to creativity Aleviz 1 st, and VP Vygolov doubted the authorship
Aleviz 2 nd on the church, founded in 1514.
Arguments SS Podyapolsky and VP
Vygolova in favor of classifying the Kremlin Palace to the creativity of
"the wall and the neighbor in the ward masters" Aleviz 1 st undeniable: Aleviz 2 nd in 1499 was not yet in Russia, to the same message in the chronicle under this year states that the
master was in Milan. But there are valid doubts about
the authorship of these researchers Aleviz 2 nd against churches, construction
of which began in 1514?
VP Vygolov correctly assumed that,
since the same Chronicle under the year 1508 reports that the fortification
work (trench Delatite stone and brick ... ") were assigned Aleviz Fryazino
and Archangel Cathedral and the Church of St John the Baptist built a new
Aleviz The chronicler led it to
different architects. But out of this situation the
researcher has made a highly controversial conclusion that, while from 1508 to
1519 years Aleviz 1 st built the Kremlin to strengthen, in 1514 he also began
the construction of eleven churches. The rationale for this
conclusion was the fact that the architect mentioned in chronicles in the year
1514, was named Aleviz Fryazino - as well as in reports on the activities of
Aleviz 1 st at 1494 and 1499 years.
In fact, the position of VP
Vygolova we see another "extreme" point of view, but with opposite
sign: the greatest architect of the age, ability to build and castles, and
palaces and temples (and in parallel and on an unprecedented scale), was Aleviz
1 - First, as Aleviz 2 nd built in
Russia for four years, two of the temple and after 1508 disappeared.
Apparently, in this case the
truth is midway between the "extreme" points of view.
Undoubtedly, researchers have
always understood that the wording "Aleviz Fryazin" means nothing
more than a statement of the fact that Aleviz was Italian. Yet in this work V.P.Vygolova52
(perhaps without realizing the investigator) occurred "rebirth" of
that finding in sustainable nickname of one master - Aleviz 1 st. But, of course, Aleviz 2-y was
also Aleviz Fryazino, and the reservation "new" was used by the
chronicler, only to emphasize that the Italian Aleviz who built the Cathedral
of the Archangel, arrived in Moscow later Italian Aleviz, build fortifications
on Neglinnaia. Consequently, we can not rely on
the naming of an architect Aleviz Fryazino in determining the author's temples,
whose construction was started in 1514.
Far more important message is
seen chronicle in 1494 that Aleviz was "master wall and ward. The scribe could hardly make it
a fundamental clarification of chance, and such specialization Aleviz 1 st all put into place.
From 1494 to 1499 years Aleviz
1-y finishing work to strengthen the Kremlin, which did not have time to
complete Solari. In 1499-1508 years the architect
built the Grand Palace and the walls of the palace to Borovitskaya tower. In 1508-1519 years he worked on
the walls, towers and moats of the Kremlin by Neglinna.
It is unlikely that the
architect had the opportunity in parallel with these large-scale fortifications
build 11 churches in Moscow (in 1514-1518, respectively). Accordingly, just as
questionable and that in the years 1508-1513 Aleviz 1-y could lead the
construction of a princely palace-temple complex in the Alexander settlement.
A Aleviz 2 nd from 1505 to 1508
years, built the Cathedral of the Archangel and the Church of St. John the Baptist. Is natural to assume that the
specificity of his work as "hramozdatelya" and continue to be a
priority. Consequently, from 1508 to 1513,
he could build temples and the palace in the Sloboda, and from 1514 - 11
churches in Moscow.
The temple construction was
supposed to be an architect specializing more in Italy, otherwise he would
immediately on his arrival is not entrusted with such are solely responsible construction,
as Archangel Cathedral (in connection with the identity Aleviz 2 and sculptor
Alvise Lamberti di Montagnana is very unlikely). And the experience of building
the palace complexes Aleviz 2-y could get in Bahchisarae53.
Ability Aleviz 2 nd (for
simplicity in the future we will again call it the New Aleviz as Aleviz 1-y in
our study more mention will not) be creative in a wide range of architectural
forms was confirmed in the XIX-XX centuries, so different from each other buildings of the architect as
Bakhchissaray Palace, Cathedral of the Archangel and lithographs by well-known
AA Martynov and IM Snegiryov Church of the Nativity of John the Baptist by Bohr
and the Annunciation in the Old Vagankove. In the 1960's added to the list
Octagonal Cathedral Metropolitan Peter in High-Petrovsky monastery. We may add here another four
unique temple of Alexander the settlement, including the first tent-roofed
stone church - Trinity.

The origin of ancient stone
architecture in a tent (we will henceforth call it simply a marquee
architecture, material structures will specify only in the case of wooden
architecture) took the researchers is not the first hundred years. Because detailed historical overview of all
points of view put forward goes beyond the length of the article, only list the
"basic" positions (in chronological order of their appearance):
- HIP architecture of ancient
Russia was the direct or indirect reminder of the late Gothic Western (NM
Karamzin, IM Snegirev, L. Dahl, EE Golubinsky, AI Nekrasov, H. Wagner) 54;
- HIP architecture - a unique
phenomenon that has been formed on the basis of ancient wooden architecture (IA
Zabelin, FF Gornostayev, Grabar, N. Voronin) 55;
- HIP architecture is derived
from the ancient Serbian churches and with elevated podpruzhnymi arches (NI
Bruno) 56;
- HIP architecture was formed
under the influence of architecture of ancient castle towers (PN Maksimov, MA
Il'in, MN Tikhomirov, H. Wagner) 57;
- By becoming a hip architecture
greatly influenced by ancient Russian stolpoobraznye church-bell (MA Il'in, H.
Wagner) 58;
- Old Russian pavilion was
"an accident in the architecture and just replaced the dome, overlapping
SPLA (VV Kavelmaher) 59.
Before we begin to address these
hypotheses, we note that studies of VV Kavelmahera and the author of this
article, which led to the revision of the position relative to the first stone
church tent, can not by themselves significantly affect the choice of one or
another point of view of researchers or to develop a new tent theory of the origin of
architecture. One of the Grand Temple (Ascension 1528-1532 period), with high probability, built by Italian architect (Petroc
Minor), "replaced" by another (the Holy Trinity in 1510-ies), and
with high probability, built by Italian architect (New Aleviz). Both belong to the era of the
church Vasily III, marked by the flowering of architecture and an active search
for new forms. The only thing we will further
study the "replacement" church of the Assumption at Trinity Church - the traditional forms quadrangular last.
And we start with a statement of
fact that is difficult to doubt - that during the formation of ancient
architecture XII-XV centuries, it is steadily growing "tendency up"
characteristic of Romanik and Gothic. General "tall"
proportions hramov60, the emergence of high arches, handling drums keeled
kokoshnikami61, the construction of bulbous domes of high glav62 construction
stolpoobraznyh churches "under the bells", 63 - all these phenomena
are consistent with the overall impression "lancet", which makes the
Gothic.
Typical for the gothic tendency
to increase and zalnosti "inner space of temples is also reflected in
ancient architecture - the pillars became thinner and thinner, smaller and
smaller temples were internal blades appeared besstolpnye temples with angle
oporami64 wall, and then with the cruciform svodom65 . A Cathedral of the Assumption
Fioravanti, for example, S. Pod'yapol'skii rightly belongs to the type of
Gothic "hall church", 66.
GK Wagner wrote that "if
the development of" high altitude "architecture was not interrupted
by the Mongol invasion, then Russia would have known something akin to Gothic
67.
In this regard, must believe that
the emergence of "forward-up" tent architecture corresponds to one of
the major trends of the Gothic, and this is a serious argument in favor of the
position of NM Karamzin, IM Snegireva, L. Dahl, E. E. Golubinski and Nekrasov. Here we classify and position NI
Brunova (temples with high podpruzhnymi arches), MA Ilyin, AP Maksimova,
Tikhomirov and G. K. Wagner (stolpoobraznye temples and freestanding towers) as all this, as rightly pointed
out G.K.Vagner68, closely associated with "high rise" of Gothic and,
accordingly, with a marquee architecture.
But the question arises: is
connected directly or indirectly? Here are a number of provisions
that force us to deny a direct link HIP architecture and gothic.
First, higher arches and hipped
end of temples are completely different constructive entity (arch supporting
the dome, and the tent itself is located on the ground supported by arches and
domes), and to conduct a direct parallel between them inappropriately.
Secondly, stolpoobraznye temples
to the construction in 1510-ies of the Church of Metropolitan Alexei Alexandrov
Sloboda and St. Peter the Metropolitan of High-Petrovsky monastery did not
have, unlike the tent-roofed churches, more or less extensive SPLA, that is, in
engineering terms were closer to the tower than to
ecclesiastical buildings (examples - the church-bell tower of St John Climacus
in 1329, Novgorod "Clock-tower" in 1443, Ivan the Great Bell
1505-1508 period);
Thirdly, a direct parallel
between the fortified towers and marquee temples impossible. The first had a utilitarian
character, the second appearance is determined solely by spiritual needs and
architectural thought era. Moreover - with the
"utilitarian" perspective tent churches had no meaning, as compared
with the somasshtabnymi "A cross churches (and even more so with the
European basilicas) area of SPLA is small, but" kolodtseobraznost
"interior creates a lot of problems with the acoustics.
Fourth, for the Western Gothic
(as for Romanik, as for the Renaissance) is absolutely unusual overlap SPLA
tent. Above sredokrestiyami sometimes
built a stone octagonal cupola (Imperial Cathedral of Speyer, cathedral in
Limburg on the Lahn - Fig. 6), or wooden tents (Church of Our Lady in Bryugge68
- Fig. 7). Sometimes over the stone dome
was erected decorative wooden tent (Cathedral in Padua, Fig. 8). Not one stone of the tent or on
the SPLA, nor over sredokrestiem in a more or less meaningful the temple we do
not know. Tent complete the form used in
the Romanesque-Gothic Europe in large numbers only for the towers.

Fig. 6. The dome over the cathedral in Limburg sredokrestiem on Lana.

Fig. 7. Church in Bruges.

Fig. 8. Cathedral in Padua. Above the central dome was
erected decorative tent.
In this connection it is
necessary to make an important reservation: Determining the origin of HIP
architecture and speaking of the first stone Tent Temple, we can not specify
that we are talking about ancient Russia. Other options here could not be,
as the construction of large temples, stone covered with tents, unprecedented
in the world did not have.
AK duty office wrote that the
origin of HIP architecture, from Gothic "is sourced form the tent, but not
hip typology of the temple. This means that nothing was
found: the architectural typology does not consist of individual parts on the
principle of collage. If we assume that the Russian
pavilion is derived from the Gothic spire, we followed this will suggest a
number of intermediate links between the two typologies - a Gothic bell tower,
which is integrated into the body of a vaulted basilica, and the Russian
STANDING centric hip church. For example, Russian Basilica
with belfry, from which then occurred freestanding belfry, turning then to the
tent church. Or centric freestanding temples,
crowned by a spire, in the West. But because these intermediaries
no version collapses. The available evidence is
insufficient. There can be such that the spire
of "cut down" from the bell tower and hoisted on the way the
undertaken (and who undertook, by the way, nowhere) in the quadrangular octagon
70. We should all agree with the
researcher.
Fifth, one of the most salient
trends Gothic - increase the area of internal space of temples. With marquee same architecture,
the opposite: we have already said that compared with somasshtabnymi "A
cross churches, and especially with European basilicas, their area SPLA small.
Sixth, the beginning of XVI
century in Europe was marked not Gothic, and Renaissance. And it is very unlikely that a
highly qualified Italian architect of the time, whether or Aleviz New Petroc
Small, could focus on the Gothic. As we know, the term
"Gothic" belongs to the Italians XV-XVI centuries, and means
"the art is ready", ie "Barbarians".
It's worth noting that in the
Church of the Ascension in Kolomna, as shown by S. Pod'yapol'skii, there have
been numerous "Renaissance" items (orders, portals, with direct
arhitravnym overlapping opening, "Renaissance" drawing gothic
vimpergov, etc.). With regard to having a place in
the Kolomna Gothic church elements (total stolpoobraznosti and many decorative
elements, above all of the vimpergov), researchers believed that Petroc Minor
applied them as a stylized "local" architecture, as he caught in the
previous Old Russian Architecture spirit gotiki71.
We completely agree with SS
Pod'yapol'skii and say the same about Aleviz New: in the temples of the
Alexander settlement there are many elements of Renaissance architecture
(decor, portals, colonnades, etc.) Orientation Aleviz on Renaissance
architecture, and confirmed its first Moscow buildings - Archangel's Cathedral. All the "Gothic"
elements in temples built by this Italian architect, is, like Petroc Minor,
stylization of old Russian architecture (and St. Basil's Cathedral in the
Alexander settlement, as we have already noted, in general, is a direct
"remake" the Trinity Cathedral of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra ).
5.
We can now proceed to the
consideration of hypotheses related to the origin of hip architecture of
ancient wooden architecture.
"The scribe briefly the
Russian land» (XVI vek72) under the year 1532 says: "Grand Prince Vasily
placed the church Kamen Vznesenie our Lord Jesus Christ up on the wooden case
73. This message carries a direct
parallel between the Kolomna temple and wooden architecture, and argue with
this documentary evidence is hardly possible.
We have a picture and not
surviving wooden tent-roofed church in the village Upe Arkhangelsk region (Fig.
9), construction of which klirovye records relate to 1501 godu74 - accordingly,
this church was built before the first brick church tent.

Fig. 9. Church in the village Upe
Arkhangelsk region.
NN Voronin and PN Maksimov
believed that the tent wooden church is a common type of ancient temple already
in the pre-Mongol vremya75, and we can cite a number of arguments in support of
their position.
First, these researchers have
provided examples of images of wooden tent-roofed churches on the icon of the
beginning of XIV century from the village of the curve (Fig. 10) and the margin
of the Pskov handwriting "Charter" in 1976.

Fig. 10. Icons
from the village of Crooked.
Second, these researchers
believed on the basis of textual and iconographic analysis of ancient documents
that the marquee had not survived the wooden churches in Vyshgorod (1020-1026
years), 77 Ustyug (end of XIII century), 78 Ledskom churchyard (1456) 79, and
Vologda ( end of
the XV century) 80. About the church in 1501 in the village Upe we have already mentioned above.
Third, these researchers have
led the chronicle reported high "standing" in Moskve81 and showed
that it was a wooden tent stolpoobraznyh tserkvyah82;
Fourthly, a wooden belfry is
shown in the image of the Tver Kremlin first half of the XV century on the icon
and Princess Michael of Tver Ksenii83 (Fig. 11).

Fig. 11. Images of the Tver Kremlin first
half of the XV century on the icon Michael of Tver and Princess Xenia.
Fifthly, it is likely that many
of the wooden tent churches XVI-XVII centuries are copies of more ancient. This position was justified
A.K.Dezhurko84 based on the following considerations:
- Folk architecture conservative
typology change very slowly;
- There was a pattern to replace
rotted logs in the wooden house on one, why time in the ancient monument of the
original material could be very small. Therefore, radiocarbon dating
and dendrochronological method is reliable only if taken for analysis of a
large number of logs. Accordingly, some wooden
monuments due to a lack of representative sample material for analysis could
receive a late date;
- Carpenters are often obliged
to build a new church modeled on the old, dilapidated.
Sixth, as we have already had to
write to the author of this stati85, wood is much easier to build a tent than a
dome, a dome of stone to build simpler than the tent. The
reasons for this are as follows:
- Construction technology of
stone domes (and formwork, and without nee86) was well known and has been
established since the days of Ancient Rome;
- Not to mention the small
"utility" of tents over the brewery and kuhnyami87 (Fig. 12), stone
tents before the beginning of XVI century in Europe are unknown to us;

Fig. 12. Kitchen of the Abbey of
Fontevraud (Romanik).
- Stone tent has almost the same
rip as the dome, and to achieve uniformity of spreading at a high altitude tent
(figuratively speaking, that does not mean "subsided") - a daunting
engineering challenge;
- From wood to build a dome is
very difficult (you will need to attach any logs semicircular form, or use them
very short intervals);
- The construction of wooden
tent several (usually eight) of logs (the edges of the tent) are reduced at the
upper and clapboard, and it can make almost any more or less qualified
carpenter. And not for nothing, as we
mentioned earlier, all known Gothic tents over sredokrestiyami - wooden.
The fact that the tent of wood
is much easier to build than a dome, it follows that the tent could be a
"simplified form" of the dome during the lifetime of the ancient
wooden architecture, including in the XI-XV centuries. The proportions of wooden tents
could be given any - depending on the quality of logs and craftsmanship of
carpenters.
In this connection it is
appropriate to support the position of VV Kavelmahera on the fact that the tent
was a simple replacement of the dome overlying SPLA - the only substantial
caveat that the replacement of wooden architecture was not an accident, but structurally
conditioned phenomenon. Grabar and FF GORNOSTAYEV
questioned the origin of the tent of wooden architecture, due to the fact that
the hipped end of the tree would have to focus on patterns in the stone, which
until the beginning of the XVI century otsutstvovali88. But in the XI-XV centuries,
wooden tent over the SPLA had quite a clear pattern - the dome of stone
temples.
And because the tent in the
wooden architecture was multi-faceted (this is due to the foundation of its
design - the beams forming the frame), it is logical that the richness of
acquired and drums. The number of faces more often
equal to eight (apparently, this is the optimal ratio for the transition to the
tent of Chetverikov, and for maximum stability of the structure). Thus, we see the source form
"octagon to quadrangular.
Another question in the
"wooden" the origin of the tent may be due to the fact that in the
surviving ancient wooden churches tent top is usually not closed down, and
separated from the SPLA horizontal ceiling. But the reasons for the erection
of additional ceiling convincingly demonstrated VA Krokhin: this was due to the
need to protect itself from the iconostasis of the church from the rain (snow)
falling into the gaps between the planks of the police and logs Povala in a
strong wind, the effective functioning of ventilation in the upper level and
log independent ventilation in
stable downstream pomeschenii89.
GP Goltz believed that
"vertically directed stone tent architecture can not occur on a horizontal
wooden structure" 90. But there are many examples
vertikalnoorientirovannyh wooden churches (as already mentioned our church in
the village Upe (Fig. 9), Church of Elijah 1600 Vyisky graveyard Upper
Toemskogo region of Arkhangelsk oblasti91 - Fig. 13, Epiphany Church in 1605 in the village Chelmuzhi Transonegan area Karelii92 - Fig. 14, Church of Ascension in 1654 in the village Piyale Onega, Arkhangelsk Region oblasti93 - Fig. 15 and many others. etc.), and
indeed the wooden pavilion (in any case, its frame) usually does not consist of
the horizontal and the vertical logs.

Chelmuzhi Transonegan district of Karelia. Longitudinal section.

Fig. 15. Church in the village Piyale
Arkhangelsk region. Longitudinal section.
In general, wood hip
architecture generates no less "Gothic" association than stone. Of course, it is unlikely the
village (and urban), the carpenters were familiar with the Western European
experience - probably Gothic "altitude" came in the wooden
architecture indirectly (through stolpoobraznye old Russian churches and
cathedrals with high arches podpruzhnymi). But actually it does not change.
6.
To sum up. We see a fairly extensive set of
factors that can directly or indirectly affect the occurrence of hip
architecture, all these factors have a very high cross-correlation, due to
which any logical construct, sooner or later "closed" at each other. As an example, the basic
postulates whose validity we have shown in this article:
- Tent churches are clearly
typological connection with stolpoobraznymi and bell towers, and temples with
elevated podpruzhnymi arches;
- "Tall"
stolpoobraznye churches "under the bells", as well as temples with
elevated podpruzhnymi arches, appeared in Russia under the influence of late
Romanik and Gothic;
- For gothic totally
uncharacteristic closing SPLA (and even sredokrestiya) tent, the more a stone;
- HIP architecture is contrary
to one of the major trends of Gothic - increase the area of the interior of the
temples;
- Italian architects of the
Renaissance could not directly focus on the Gothic;
- In the work of Italian
architects in Russia has been a conscious stylization of forms in accordance
with local traditions;
- Wood hip architecture has been
extended to Russia before the XVI century;
- There is a chronicle proof of
origin of the wooden architecture of the hip;
- Wood is much easier to build a
tent than a dome (a dome of stone to build simpler than tent);
- In the wooden architecture of
the dome tent was the replacement of closing the SPLA;
- General "high
altitude" of ancient wooden churches shaped by the stone stolpoobraznyh
temples and shrines with elevated podpruzhnymi arches;
- Stolpoobraznye temples like
the temples with elevated podpruzhnymi arches, appeared in Russia under the
influence of late Romanik and Gothic.
"Logical circle" is
closed. In this case,
"closure" means that the emergence of hip architecture in one degree
or another affected all the above factors.
Consequently, each of the
researchers, whose position we discussed in Section 4, was in his own right. And out of loyalty to such a
wide spectrum of positions it can be concluded: HIP architecture was prepared
by the entire previous history and Russian and world architecture, with all the
infinite set of connections, influences and origins.
Nevertheless, the construction of
the first tent of the church was a creative genius "breakthrough",
and we can try to at least hypothetically reconstruct the specific
circumstances of the appearance of the stone tent.
We will not forget that the
authorship of the New Aleviz, like any other Italian architect in respect of Trinity Church (and author of an Italian architect in respect of the Church of the
Resurrection) is very likely, but not absolutely proven fact. And yet we try to reconstruct
the path of creativity the architect who also designed Trinity Church in Alexander's settlement, based on the fact that they had Aleviz New.
Theoretically, we can assume
that the source of inspiration for the architect to have the tents they lived
in the biblical patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. In the future, their tents have
become a symbol of the home, ie "Passage", and the
same value in the words of the prophet Isaiah was the sky: "He (God - SZ)
stretched out the heavens like a curtain, and spread them like a tent to
dwell" (Isaiah 40:22). MA Il'in, trying to "reveal
the ideological content of the tent," 94, drew attention to these words of
the Prophet and on their basis attached tent "shadowing" rol95. But the researcher himself wrote
that the notion of "passage" most fully expressed in the church's
cross (the dome on the pillars), 96, and it remains unclear why, in the XVI
century, the architect decided to replace one "shade" (dome) to
another (tent). If a tent in the church
tradition was to have any independent symbolic (and even more canonical) value,
it is as a phenomenon of stone temple architecture would have appeared much
earlier than the beginning of XVI century. And the prophet Isaiah,
"tent" is a symbol of any home, absolutely do not necessarily
tent-shaped form.
In accordance with Occam's razor
("should not multiply entities beyond necessity"), we can assume that
the source of inspiration for the New Aleviz were not distant Palestine, and
not abstract biblical characters, and the actual order and the Grand
surrounding the architect of old Russian architecture.
In the Ancient Rus from the time
of termination in the middle of the XII century, direct copying of Byzantine
samples ktitorskih specific orders given by the invited foreign architects was
that the task was not built by Italian, German or British churches, but it was
the Russian. In other words, the architects
have always needed a job in line with the already established at the time the
traditions of Russian architecture - despite the fact that they were free to
make the principles and elements of a style adopted in their country of origin.
From this general rule we do not
know no exceptions. Thus, the construction of a
"Western European" material - a white stone - in the pre-Mongol
Suzdal was conducted, including the masters of Frederick Barbarossa, the
"Byzantine" (by that time the traditional ancient Rus)'s cross forms,
although with the introduction of a number Romance interior elements and the
overall "elevation 97. Construction stolpoobraznyh
churches "under the bells" (most likely the first of these was
octagonal church of St John Climacus goda98 1329) was prepared
chetyrehstolpnymi temples with high arches and podpruzhnymi besstolpnymi - with
corner wall oporami99. Church with Groin vault became a
logical development chetyrehstolpnyh hramov100. Octagonal Cathedral of Peter the
Metropolitan (1514-1518 years) - The tradition continues stolpoobraznyh
churches "under the bells", although lacking the function of the
belfry. Assumption Cathedral in Moscow (1475-1479), the inner space of which is solved in the spirit of Gothic "hall
church", and devoid of Altar apse Trinity Church in Chashnikove (XVI
century), from an architectural type are classic's cross temples.
In short, from the
"mainstream" of ancient architecture does not drop any church,
including those built invited foreign architect. As we showed above, was no
exception and the hip architecture.
On this basis, we may assume
that New Aleviz received from the Grand Prince Vasily III, the task to build a
palace-temple complex in the Alexander settlement in the "national"
style - of course, to the extent of understanding and perception of the style
of famous European architect. Neither in Europe nor anywhere
else in the world was not such buildings as the first temple Sloboda - hence
Aleviz took a sample architecture that surrounded him in Russia. Just in time Fioravanti took a
sample of the Assumption Cathedral in Vladimir, and Aleviz, in turn, adopted as
a model for its cathedral's Assumption Cathedral Fioravanti.
However, taken as a sample in
any case does not mean full backups - even St. Basil's Cathedral in the
Alexander settlement, direct "remake" the Trinity Cathedral of the
Trinity-Sergius Lavra, differ from the design and proportions, and size, and
decor. St. Basil's Cathedral brick and
white stone Trinity. At first there basement and
galleries, and the second is not. At first the walls are vertical,
while the second "pyramid" tilted inward.
Consequently, Aleviz New built
their temples in Russia so as to understand the Russian architecture, and
applied the common body-composition and decorative solutions, which saw around
him - while not abandoning their own creativity and techniques from those of
the Renaissance, who were at him, as they say,
"blood".
In this connection, we can
assume that elevated Aleviz stone marquee over SPLA temple of the Holy Trinity
in the Alexander settlement was built under the impression the general
elevation and "lancet" Russian churches, including wood. The latter due to their huge
number formed the general aspect of ancient temple architecture is no less (if
not more) than the few stone churches, especially because the construction did
not go to the "white stone" Moscow and the provinces - the Alexander
settlement. Thus, VV Kavelmaher wrote about
"drevodelnyh" motifs in the architecture of Trinity Church:
"Among churches Sloboda only the Church of the Holy Trinity does not have
the stone porch, as was originally built the wooden Horo ¬ Mami ... On the
appointment of Trinity Church a center for residential, wood, intim ¬ tion of the palace also
shows her yn ¬ roschennaya, "pryamoblochnaya", "a wooden
case" architecture, in particular, its such form ¬ we as exaggerated
Polytsi tent ledge without architrave and frieze, the lack of capitals in the
shoulders, "chapel -prirub and gable port ¬ ly
"101.
Thus, the use of Trinity church
instead of a dome tent, it was perhaps a deliberate introduction of stone
architecture "drevodelnyh" motives to organically linked in a single
architectural ensemble of the stone temples Sloboda and wooden palace of Vasily III. However, another version is
possible: the task the architect was the maximum diversity of the first four
churches Sloboda, and with the "usual" dome on a drum Trinity Church too much resemblance to the neighboring Church of the Assumption, and in
this situation it was decided to use instead of a dome tent.
Of course, any reconstruction
plan architect can only be hypothetical. But the fact that HIP
architecture is an organic continuation preceded him ancient architectural
tradition, we may take for granted. And this tradition included and
wooden architecture, and a wide range of relationships with the global
architecture.

of drawings and models, which further work by contractors. Another example: Aristotle

33. Even if Vasili III, as I thought
VV Kavelmaher, "moved his construction personnel in the Sloboda, still 100 km from Moscow, far from the emperor and the architect, construction quality could not compare
with the Kremlin. And if, by virtue of general
studies question the ratio of local and visiting construction personnel
(ZAGRAEVSKY, 2002, pp. 36-40) considers the author of this article, the
construction under the guidance of several experienced masters in Moscow were
local talent, technical blemishes in the construction is even greater.
34. All the other churches in the
Sloboda alevizovy not so original: stolpoobraznye church-bell had been known in
Russia, with at least 1329 (John Climacus in the Moscow Kremlin - see: VV
Kavelmaher, T. Panova. Remains of the white-stone church XIV century. on the Cathedral Square of the Moscow Kremlin. Proc.: Culture medieval Moscow XIV-XVII centuries.
M., 1995. S. 66), Assumption Church was the usual church's cross, and St.
Basil's Cathedral - the de facto remake of the Trinity in the Trinity-Sergius
Lavra . Incidentally, these three
churches can not be talked about as a "minor": they all belong to the
work of an outstanding Italian architect, and together with the Trinity Church constitute a single complex.

buildings of the Kremlin palace: a refined "fryazhskaya" thread,
which is characteristic for the product architect (Bakhchisarai Palace,
Cathedral of the Archangel, the first temple of Alexander the settlement) is
present portals and the Cathedral of the
Annunciation (galleries which were actually part of the palace), and the royal
chambers. Besides differences in the

to TP Timofeeva. 1988. The letter is kept in the
museum-reserve "Alexander's settlement. Here is the full text of the
paragraph dealing with this subject: "With regard to the tent, it is -
nothing. Randomness in the architecture. It only replaces the dome,
overlapping SPLA. Of the former Byzantine
provinces, most developed typological grid, in my opinion, the Bulgarians and
their language we understand. The dome rests not on poles, and
foundations. That's it. It is necessary to avoid poles
with reels and lights, nothing basilica, and you receive a "domed"
church. Russian ear it does not say
anything, well, normal Byzantinologist does not say anything, our
"besstolpnaya" church. We can not determine the subject
of no evidence. Scientists guys Altshuler and
Aleshkovsky, when revealed in Moscow churches XIV century with "inscribed
cross" (in Bulgarian), called their churches "with wall posts! Ie with pillars against the wall! Pillar, leaning against the
wall, a wall merges itself becomes a wall. This is - stable. This example best shows that we
are so stuck on Sofiyah and viewed domed churches.
