Inhalt:
"The architecture and design of the Moscow Metro has captured the world's imagination since its opening in 1935. The monumentality and grandeur of this great Palace for the People is found in its stations' astonishing architecture and detailed decorations, from baroque mouldings and dazzling mosaics to Soviet sculpture and symbolism, representing both an ideological and artistic triumph. The iconic stations of the Moscow Metro, forming the most spectacularly designed underground network on the planet, are featured here in an original, two-sided cartographic guide. Curated by architectural historian Nikolai Vassiliev, this guide includes an introduction by Nikolai Shumakov, President of the Union of Architects of Russia and chief architect of numerous stations presented on this map, and photography by Alexei Narodizkiy. Offering fascinating insight into the network's architecture and design, this guide is an accessible reference for anyone interested in Moscow and its remarkable Metro."--Cover
