The first popular book about Alexei Shchusev - the man who designed and realized dozens of landmark buildings (among them the
Marfo-Mariinsky monastery, Kazan Station and Lenin's Mausoleum in Moscow, the Opera and Ballet Theater in Tashkent, and the Russian Pavilion in Venice). Shchusev was a great architect - but to achieve what he himself called "not bad results", it is not enough just to know how to build houses. We need other knowledge, skills and abilities that allow us to call Alexey Viktorovich a wonderful restorer, urban planner, teacher and artist. Shchusev's life was marked by many events that radically changed people's tastes, speed of life, political system and attitude to the past. But he was able to "conquer time", remaining one of the leaders of domestic architecture, no matter what was happening in life, art and the country.
