Historia del Arte:
Land of the Art:
Russian culture is an hybrid generated from habits of many civilizations that shaped this great multicultural state, and it is the result of its development for several centuries, being deeply rooted in the culture of the first eastern slavs.
The Early Muscovite Period goes from 1230 to 1540. The mongols plundered so much the country that even the capital cities couldn't build with stone due to its price till half of the century, except Novgorod and Pskov.
Novgorod
Church of Transfiguration: it is a memorial for Ilya Muromets, that saved the city, and it is in Ilyna street. It has frecoes of byzantine master Theophanes the Greek.
Pskov churches exported its characteristics to Muscovy.
In XIV century the churches in Muscovy are stone fortified churches.
Ascension cathedral of Zvenigorod: built of white stone, with dome. Proportions and harmony. The interior has frescoes of painter Andrei Rubliov.
Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius: it is a fortress. Between 1608 and 1610, 3000 defenders resisted for 16 months against 15000 polishmen. In XIV-XVII centuries it was an important cultural center. Books were written, copied and saved, and worked makers. Due to its history and merits, in XVIII it got the title of Lavra, that means superior monastery.
Sava-Storozhevski monastery: it is near river Moscova, founded by Savva, disciple of St. Sergius Radonezh. Use of white and red color.
At the end of XV century, Muscovy was very powerful. Ivan III the Great invited italian masters from Florence and Venice and they built similar old constructions from Vladimir with italian Renaissance decoration: the cathedrals of Moscow Kremlin.
Dormition cathedral: also called Ascension cathedral, directed by italian architect Aristoteles Fiorovanti from Bologne, that studied the art of Pskov, Novgorod and Vladimir to learn the forms. Here the tsars were enthronized, among other important acts.
Archangel cathedral: nice mix of russian art and italian renaissance art, directed by italian architect Alevisio the New from Venice. This cathedral was the sepulchre of princes and tsars till Peter the Great.
Annunciation cathedral: built by russian alarifes. After a fire in times of Ivan the Terrible it was rebuilt. It was added a porsche called Porsche of Ivan the Terrible, because as he married 4 times, after the 3rd you cannot enter a church.
These cathedrals were imitated in Russia over XVI century.

Andrei Rublev 安特亞·羅伯夫 ((1360-1430) Byzantine Art Russian
tonykwk39@gmail.com
Saint Andrey Rublyov, (born c. 1360–70—died c. 1430; canonized 1988; feast day January 29), one of the greatest medieval Russian painters, whose masterpiece is a magnificent icon of “The Old Testament Trinity,” now in the Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow.
Little is known of his life except that he was the assistant of another great painter called Theophanes the Greek, who came to Russia from Constantinople. Fairly late in life, Rublyov became a monk, first at Trinity-St. Sergius at Sergiyev Posad and then at the Andronikov monastery in Moscow. Russian painters did not sign their works until the 17th century, so paintings can be assigned to him only on the basis of written evidence or of style. Written evidence associates with his name wall paintings at Vladimir and Moscow and the panel, or icon, of “The Old Testament Trinity.” By analogy of style a number of other icons can also be attributed to him, the chief of these being panels of St. John the Baptist, St. Paul, St. Peter and the Ascension, done in 1408 for the Cathedral of the Dormition of the Virgin at Vladimir, and others of the Archangel Michael and the Saviour from Zvenigorod, now in the Tretyakov Gallery.
Rublyov was trained wholly in the Byzantine tradition, in which the spiritual essence of art was regarded as more important than naturalistic representation. The hieratical character of the mid-Byzantine style had, with the 14th century, given way to a more intimate, humanistic approach, but to this Rublyov was able to add an element that was truly Russian, a complete unworldliness, and it is this that distinguishes his work from that of his Byzantine predecessors. Nor was any later Russian painter ever quite able to equal Rublyov either in his handling or in the interpretation of his subject.
聖安德烈·羅伯夫，（出生c。1360-70死了c 1430年;公元1988年;節日1月29日），最偉大的中世紀俄國畫家之一，其傑作是一個宏偉的象“舊約三位一體”，現在在特列季亞科夫畫廊，莫斯科。
很少有人知道他的生活，除了他是另一個偉大的畫家，稱為希臘的
塞奧法尼斯(Theophanes)，誰從君士坦丁堡來到俄羅斯的助手。相當晚的生活，羅伯夫成為一個修道士，首先在三一聖。 Sergius在Sergiyev Posad，然後在羅伯夫修道院在莫斯科。俄羅斯畫家沒有簽署他們的作品，直到17世紀，所以繪畫可以分配給他只有在書面證據或風格的基礎上。書面證據與他的名字在弗拉基米爾和莫斯科的壁畫和“舊約三位一體”的面板或圖標相關聯。通過類型的類比，一些其他的圖標也可以歸因於他，這些主要是面板聖約翰浸禮會教友，聖保祿，聖彼得和升天，在1408年為弗拉基米爾聖母大教堂做的，其他大天使邁克爾和救世主從Zvenigorod，現在在特列季亞科夫畫廊。
羅伯夫完全按照拜占庭傳統進行訓練，其中藝術的精神本質被認為比自然主義的表現更重要。中世紀拜占庭風格的雄辯性質，與14世紀，給了一種更親密，人性化的方法，但對這個Rublyov能夠添加一個元素，是真正的俄羅斯，一個完全不衛生，這是區分他的工作與他的拜占庭式的前輩。也沒有任何後來的俄羅斯畫家永遠能夠平等羅伯夫在他的處理或在他的主題的解釋。
