This series
of articles on restoration, interior design and decoration of high-grade hotel
apartments and public zones of The Palace Park Ensemble "Maryino" of
Prince Bariatinsky, Kursk region. Design, reconstruction and restoration works were
carried out by PROF PROJECT which
includes the architectural department and the planning-and-design office under
the head of Solovieva A.V. as a project manager and an architect.
From the
begining of XXI century Palace Park Ensemble "Maryino" is a
sanatorium (Property Management Department of President of Russian Federation).
The Federal state budgetary institution "The sanatorium Maryino" is
under the supervision of the Property Management Department of President of
Russian Federation and a capital construction object in accordance with
Presidential Decree 541, issued on October 29, 2015.
This
publication is devoted to the redesign proposals for lux rooms of The Maryino
Palace. The first variant represents a reconstruction of the historical
interiors adapted for the current use.
The Palace
Park Ensemble "Maryino" was built at the begining of XIX century according to a project of Kursk's
architect Carl Ivanovich Gofman. The ancient noble family Bariatinsky dates
back to the legendary prince Ruruk. Maryino was called in honour of beautiful
Princes Maria Fedorovna Bariatinsky the Prussian Countess and wife of Prince
Ivan Ivanovich Bariatinsky. The Palace was meant to be the symbol of the
greatness of Princely sort of Bariatinsky. It was in the reign of the Russian
tsar Pavel the first.
The
Bariatinsky Palace is a three-storied building with three differentiated parts
of main building and two large single-storied outbuildings. The buildings are situated
in a great scenery park with magnificent flower beds, round and oval lakes with
islands and linked with the help of several bridges. Rotunda is located at one
of them and the Lutheran Kirche is on the next one.
The
aesthetic guide for visual conception of the Palace interiors became well-preserved examples of Russian
architecture and art: historical interiors of russian palaces, genre paintings,
engravings, etching, book illustrations with elements of interior decoration,
furnirure, lightings and scenes of daily and holyday life. I also used
surviving archived materials concerning the building of the Palace, reference
books, artistic and academic books and literature of domestic and foreign
classical writers relating to the lifestyle of russian nobility.The
chronological range of monitoring period covers the full range from second part
of the XVIII century and concluding to the end of the XIX century. Particular
attention was given to the style of interiors of Anichkov Palace and Yusupov
Palace, Tsarskoselsky Palace at St. Petersburg created by Ippolito Monighetti;
the mansion of Ekaterina Mikhailovna Dolgorukova, Her Highness Princess
Yurevskaya, created by D.E. Yefimov and A.I. Klein; the palace the Grand Duke
Vladimir Alexandrovich (House of Scientists in the Moscow) created and decorated
by academician I.S. Kithner and academician of
V.A. Schroeter, the house of Count N.P. Rumyantsev by architect D.E.
Yefimov and so on. I also looked through a lot of patterns of elite
well-preserved historical furniture, vintage lighting, wooden finishings,
plasters and mouldings, textiles, paintings, ornaments, carpets and rugs and et
cetera. The artistic works by F.S. Rocotov, S.F. Galaktionov, N.I. Tihobrazov,
N.N. Podkluchnikov were very helpful in understanding of original coloristic
schemes in interior decoration.
The interiors of lux apartments of the Bariatinsky Palace were created and based on art reconstruction traditions of noble Russian interiors in the style of Russian neoclassicism including eclectical detailes of Barocco, Rococo and Empire styles and sometimes with delicate oriental coloring especially in textile, carpets and ornaments.
