Empire
Empire - a style in architecture, arts and crafts and fine arts of the first third of the XIX century. in European countries, which completed the development of classicism. The Empire style developed in France during the era of Napoleon Bonaparte, and then spread to many other countries. The distinctive features of this style are solemnity, splendor, massiveness of large volumes, richness of decor.

Empire architecture is characterized by monumentality, geometric correctness of volumes and integrity (triumphal arches, columns, palaces). The ceremonial palace interiors were richly decorated with picturesque panels inspired by Pompeian paintings, reliefs reminiscent of Egyptian sphinxes, vases, furniture and antique bronze. The decor was often overloaded with arabesques, palmettes, fantastic motives from Etruscan art and military paraphernalia of Roman origin (armor, shields, swords, wreaths, heraldic eagles, etc.). Empire through numerous attributes and symbols asserted the idea of imperial greatness.In Russia, the Empire style was most widespread in the city-planning ensembles of the center of St. Petersburg, designed by K. Rossi. In Moscow, many buildings and mansions were built in this style according to the designs of D. Battista and G. Gilardi and A. Grigoriev. In Russian sculpture, the Empire style was reflected in a number of monuments, for example, in the creation of I. Martos - the monument to K. Minin and Dm. Pozharsky on Red Square in MoscowThe founder of the Empire style is the painter Louis David, and the exponents of this style are the architects Charles Persier (1764–1838) and Pierre Fontaine (1762–1853).  ...
