Abstract

The following article is devoted to a fascinating period in Moscow architecture — the years under the reign of Peter the Great. The architectural style of this period is commonly referred to as “Naryshkin” style. Among the monuments of the Naryshkin style, the important place belongs to the churches “under the bells” and the churches-belfries. The best examples of the Moscow sacred architecture around 1700 demonstrate these types. The profound study of the churches “under the bells” and the churches-belfries in the Russian architecture of the late 17th - early 18th century, investigation of the origins of their composition and the interaction of traditions and innovations, as well as the attempt to highlight different typology options give us a chance to take a fresh look at the problem of the formation of the Naryshkin style.
