This monograph by St. Petersburg art historian K. V. Malinovsky is devoted to the history of the construction and culture of St. Petersburg in the 18th century. Drawing on thousands of archival documents and printed sources from the period, the author reconstructs a truly comprehensive picture of the formation of the "northern capital," highlighting the fallacy of established scholarly stereotypes on many issues, including the history of the city's founding and early construction on the Neva River and the construction of several famous buildings, including the Petrovsky Gate of the Peter and Paul Fortress and the Stroganov Palace. The author introduces the names of architects and masters previously unknown in the history of Russian art, as well as new facts about the Rastrelli family.
