Architectural twins

A few days ago had to read his young subordinates short lecture on architecture, urban planning, urban sculpture ets ... They were talking about building ideas, borrowing, about any nonsense. Then everything shifted on the subject of China, as they cool "copyists," then the primacy of ideas, then of "deja vu" ... This is how was born this topic. About counterparts in architecture and urban sculpture. Some photographs - personal part - nadergano from the Internet. I think that anyone would be interested. So - let's go!

1. Yaroslavl and Suzdal. Left - Spasopreobrazhensky Cathedral in Yaroslavl, but the right - Suzdal, St. Basil's Cathedral. The photos were taken from different angles, but the church - almost twins except for small details.





2. And here's another interesting 2 buildings. Well, how? Look Like? The pediment of the building on the right - a complete repetition of the building on the left, and is raised on a plinth. Left - Music Pavilion in Kuzminki Manor Golitsyn, but the right - Volkovskiy theater in Yaroslavl.



3. A beautiful monument. But do not leave the sense of "deja vu". Somewhere we've already seen. Strange. This is Petersburg? Anichkov Bridge? No, it's - Naples. The statue was actually one time on the Anichkov Bridge, but was donated to Nicholas I and Ferdinand II of Bourbon moved to Naples.

4. And this then what and where? We are here for fools hold? This is not true of Naples? But a statue of the same? Yes, no one for anyone not holding. Yes, not Naples. Not Petersburg. It - Pavlovsk. A statue - is the same. Emperor Nicholas I-st ​​once even joked:

"Klodt! You're doing better horses than the stallion! »

5. And on the Anichkov Bridge St. Petersburg is this one horse. Do not worry, not stolen.

6. Beautiful church in the Gothic style, is not it? Experts and craftsmen photoshop say, "Pitoshenka mastered SC3, and now we vparivaet garbage. We saw this church in St. Petersburg. No there is no wooden fence, no trees, no huts. And there are absolutely wrong. This is the Church of the Transfiguration in the village of Red Tver region. Poltoratsky built in 1790.



7. But this is Cesme Church. This is St. Petersburg. Connoisseurs, by the way, know that this was another church in the Pskov province, in the village of Posadnikovo, built by Count Lansky, one of the many favorites of Catherine the II-nd. Unfortunately, up to now it has not reached.



8. Residents of Novosibirsk right now cry, "Holy smoke Yes, we stole a monument to Vysotsky! When managed, the bastards? ". Calm down, everything is in its place. It - Montenegro and place - Podgorica.



9. But this is your Vysotsky, Novosibirsk. Wash, by the way, is something you really start it ...



10. "Behold the Fig" - say the champions of democracy and run to check the Statue of Liberty to Manhattan. It is strange - on the spot. And then I remembered that originally a statue of the French, and here in America - a pathetic copy. A statue in Paris was like in the Luxembourg Gardens, it is well worth it. By the way, in Paris, she was not alone. Their entire FOUR !!! More are in the Paris Museum of Arts and Crafts in the eastern part of the Swan Islands and the bow of the barge, moored standing on the right bank near the Eiffel Tower. Few know that the artist's model was Isabella Boyer, the wife of Isaac Singer, creator and entrepreneur in the field of sewing machines.



11. But this is ... So, I do not understand how it got there, and where is it? And this is - in Lviv. So that's that ... on the facade of the Museum of Ethnography and Crafts on Liberty Avenue. It was built by the way, in the 19th century.



12. Harassment Just some. Again photoshop? Fake? And a pedestal like as not the same. And Panorama. Strange. Where? It's very simple. Tokyo, opposite the "Rainbow Bridge", a suburb of Odaiba.



13. Enough of torturing people. It is that familiar with Manhattan



14. That is quite clear. When the Germans had run so Treptow Park? Or are they too suffered a monument to the Liberator Soldier? No, not moved. And it is - not the Treptow Park. It is a city Vereya, Naro - Fominsk district, Moscow region.



15. A Treptow parkovsky here it is. Everything is on the right place. The Germans refused to transfer the monument. That you do not Estonia. It - civilization.



16. Well, - it is clear to everyone, right? Petersburg, Kazan Cathedral. Everybody knows!!! And that's not guessed! This St. Peter's Basilica in Rome ... Looks like it?



17. But this is - the Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg.



18. Straight mockery for some, right? Oh Basil's Cathedral something we guess probably, right? Yes? But this is - not Basil. That - the Chapel of the Saviour on Spilled Blood, St. Petersburg.



19. But this is really St. Basil's Cathedral.



20. And if you bypass the St. Basil's Cathedral on the Vasilyevsky Slope and go to the GUM, we upremsya to the monument to Minin and Pozharsky. What is it like? This is not Moscow! Sentry !!! That's right, it's Nizhny Novgorod.



21. But this is really Moscow. Now everything is right and everything is in place.



22. Again, it is not clear. It is a monument to "Tsar Carpenter" in St. Petersburg at the Admiralty waterfront? Yes, it really is "the King of the carpenter." Only in Zaandam, there is a town in the Netherlands.



23. And this is the king of the St. Petersburg carpenter ...



24. And now transported to Rostov, and stumble on a temple here ... Something he reminds us ... That's just what? What does he look like?



25. And it looks like the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. Now everything fell into place.



26. Gostiny Dvor in St. Petersburg know, of course, everything.



27. Then it's what? Nikolsky market yard in St. Petersburg? No, it's seating in the yard Pushkin. Very similar, right?



28. And this is the courtyard Nicholas market in St. Petersburg before the restoration. They drove him to the horrific course status. As a civil engineer, who took part in the examination, I will say - it is easier to destroy the devil's grandmother let rebuild "replica copy." Launched before the accident.



29. So. I punch your brain sorts courtyards, markets and "Dormitory" thoroughly. What is this yard? Here is an ambush, right? Damn, still somewhere seen. Champs Elysees? Boulevard des Capucines? Wow resembles Paris. Or Rome. Or ... Do not speculate in vain. This is a pilot project to restore the area of ​​Apraksin Dvor in St. Petersburg on Sadovaya.



30. Then all will know immediately. This Tallinn. Mermaid. Monument known. And still have the feeling he had seen earlier. What is it?



31. Maybe that's it? Armadillo in St. Petersburg?



32. Or is it? The monument to the lost ships of Sevastopol? Yes, it is. What unites them is that it's all monuments of ships that will never return to the home port. Perhaps that is why they are so similar.



33. That the Capitol. This we all know? Someone mind that this Capitol? This is the Capitol, only it is the Capitol in Havana, Cuba. University there.



34. It is strange, but in the United States on Capitol Hill, then what? And there - that's that. Yeah….



35. I am quite confused. And then here is how to understand? And it must be understood as we can already see the Cathedral of St. Peter's in Rome, but from a different angle. By the way .... Something vaguely reminiscent selfless in St. Petersburg from the University Square.



36. And this is - Ukraine. Vinnytsia region. Charnomin outskirts of the village. By order of the lover of Countess Sofia Potocki in 1810 for the local Count Nikolai Charnomskogo this manor built in Odessa chief architect Francesco Boffo. But something I plagued by vague doubts ...



37. Exactly! This is a copy of the White House in Washington. We see it on TV almost daily in the news.



38. And this is a monument to our former leader. Ponastavili them across the country while nemeryannom. The one on the right - is in Yaroslavl, but the left - Novosibirsk. One gets the impression that the right hand he never fell, and the cap has been strapped with tape to the left. Correct someone said: "Fuck, tovarischi it - over there!»



39. To the left of the fortress. Petersburg, but the right - Peter and Paul Church in Yaroslavl. Similar between them much. Especially when you consider that Peter did Trezzini and Yaroslavl - his disciple.



40. Needless hurried, inattentive say, "Spit of Vasilyevsky Island, St. Petersburg, the Stock Exchange building." And here is wrong. This is Paris. Church of St. Mary Magdleny



41. That, of course, the Stock Exchange building in St. Petersburg.



42. Church of St. Mary Magdalene ask not to be confused with the Cameron Gallery in Pavlovsk. Pillars much less.



43. And from the Parthenon, in Athens, Greece.



44. Finally a rare photo. It is not often show it. Immediately say, "Why, it's the Colosseum!". I will not argue. It's really - the Colosseum. Only the Coliseum in Carthage, in Africa, it was in ancient Phoenicia, now - Tunisia.



45. And familiar to us the Coliseum, well, the one in Rome - that's it. Carthage will be even a little more.



46. ​​But a series of sculptures "The boy strangling a goose." Here and Kiev, and St. Petersburg, Rome ... They - a lot. Why do boys learn to choke the goose? "One-eyed zmeyuku" and so they learn to choke, without any visual aid. Trust me ...

47 ...

48 ...

49 ... Last Boy with goose ... Most probably the only "Pioneer to the mountain," "Lenin" and "Girl with a paddle"

50. Yaroslav the Wise, Kiev. Jaroslav sits near the Golden Gate (the people called him a man with a cake). In fact bronze Yaroslav holds no sweetness, and the layout of St. Sophia. Its author - a famous sculptor Kavaleridze. The same layout is on Andrew's descent, near the house-museum of the famous sculptor. It is interesting that on the back side of the first monument survived three handprints that left Vitaly Sivko sculptors Nicholas Bilyk, Vitaliy Redko.

All gentlemen. Who would be able and know - add.



By the way ... I forgot about Quadriga !!! Arch of the General Staff in St. Petersburg



Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow. Also Quadriga

And it Quadriga - Alexandrinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg
