Shvidkovsky, D. O. Features of Renaissance in the Russian Culture of Architecture and Diplomacy of Venice of the 15th century.

Abstract: In order to start Renaissance, architecture of every European country (except for Italy) needed a combination of the four basic factors including, in the first place, a group of people ready to perceive Antique forms and ideas: masters –creators, mighty customers and thinkers which could either perceive the philosophy of Italian or Byzantine humanism or create their own ideology which would evolve around the Rome Empire or Byzantium. New forms appearing during the years when the Moscow architecture was close to Italian Renaissance of the 15th century, was determining its development for quite a long time.
