Beauty of Decay
...
Alex Sliozkin, an architectural historian, a member of the Society for the Study of Russian manor: «And now we enter the temple through the altar. This frame of the iconostasis. Everything is saved, that is something the church is closed not too long ago, 66 years ago»
Enthusiasts of the Society for the Study of Russian manor in the record books and photographs, as destroyed the last nest of the old Russia, carrying tourists and - shrug. Palace Marshal Chernysheva, one of the finest monuments in Russia XVIII century, the century XXI - a hair's breadth from death. Corinthian columns collapsed, family vault hacked, Plate «protected by state» rusted, and the former owner - the Moscow Aviation Institute - from the manor and the church disown:
Andrew CHEKMAREV, an architectural historian, a member of the Society for the Study of Russian manor: «These are the half-and in general the general solution of the church hall echoed with the interiors of the Great Kremlin Palace».
It is not surprising: after all, for the Senate of the Moscow Kremlin replied Matvey Kazakov. And for the church at Yaropoletskoy estate: his teacher - Vasily Bazhenov. Only there, in Moscow, the State Prize is awarded now, but here, in Yaropoltse today - the temple of hip-hop.
Andrew CHEKMAREV, an architectural historian, a member of the Society for the Study of Russian manor: «The saddest thing that overfly the palace of the last vestiges of real scenery - stone, carved, molded. Girlyandochki with keystones, lion masks ... Of these, there are only three of them ».
The fact that you can still see in reality, except that the obelisk to the arrival of Catherine the Great. All the rest have to imagine. And the regular park, a luxury comparable to Versailles, and the system of fountains and terraces, and the sculpture park .... All this in a patrimonial nest Chernyshev exist until the Bolsheviks came to power, yet there is not a spa to them. Pavlik Morozov. It would seem that those days are long gone, but it Pavlikov is alive and well. And, alas, not only here but all over Russia.
Ivan Sinyushkin, the Proprietor: This is on the poster is written: «The Executive Committee of Workers 'and Soldiers' Deputies: Citizens! The old owners are gone. After they left a great legacy. Now it belongs to all people ».
This - the last thing the owner of a private hotel, of Rostov Ivan Sinyushkin, hung in his merchant's mansion. It's no joke, write a three-star hotel in the monument of the XIX century?
Ivan Sinyushkin, Proprietor: «As the old roof was already completely unsuitable, we fully reconstructed».
Correspondent: «At first, a Jacuzzi set, and then the roof?»
Ivan Sinyushkin: «Approximately so».
...
Palaces and manor houses go under the hammer. But where is the guarantee that the new owners do not turn them into modern replica, not obnesut fence? According to the consultant, the first 15 suburban estates of the surviving 600 are already sold. And almost everything - at a private auction.
Natalia Belova, Head of suburban real estate agency rielterskogo: «It is really very upsetting. Previously, these same ruins could somehow see to it approached, then in the near future, if the legislation does not change anymore. Because it is impossible to go on private property ».
In wooden farmstead Leontiev, unique to historians, lived for many years Pionerlager until accidentally found a successor, who created the first precedent in Russia. And now a private mansion restore in partnership with public funds, and a few years here will open the museum and the Center for Russian estate culture. All this - the forces of France and Russia volunteers.
If a dozen of French volunteers did not want to dig a little deeper into the history of a foreign country, the Leontief estate may have suffered the same fate as hundreds of others. Their future in front of tourists is erased in the dust.
Irina Shcherbakova, a participant of the project «Russo-French volunteer camp»: «Leontiev, probably would have been difficult without the fund. Fund without Leontiev, in general, does ».
Correspondent: «And the state?»
Irina Shcherbakova: «State ... Well, what state? Well, do not reach him until all hands ».
