PROPORTIONAL AND METROLOGICAL FEATURES OF THE FORMS OF THE CHURCH OF THE SAVIOR ON SPILLED BLOOD IN SAINT PETERSBURG
The article states that the theory of architecture has formed a hypothesis about the presence in Russian architecture of a system of measures based on the proportion of the «golden section», which served as a kind of instrument for the harmonization of © Радзюкевич А.В., Забелин А.В., Нигматуллина Э.И., 2022 compositional solutions by the architect. Using the example of the analysis of the forms of the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood in St. Petersburg, the inconsistency of this hypothesis is shown. To analyze the proportions of the temple, the masonry structure of the main facade was reconstructed. The assumption about the method of modular calculation of the size of the temple is proved. It is shown how the brickwork structurally correlates with the dimensions of the elements of the temple and with the dimensions of the Russian system of measures. The proven method of proportional analysis can be of great value both in scientific and methodological, and in practical terms.
