Igumnov House, Russian Revival mansion in Yakimanka District, Russia
The Igumnov House features red Dutch bricks, ornate white stone window frames, and polychrome ceramic tiles across its elaborate facade design.
Merchant Nikolai Igumnov commissioned architect Nikolai Pozdeev to construct this residence in 1895, investing approximately one million rubles in its creation.
The interior spaces display 17th and 18th-century tapestries, furniture collections, and a grand entrance hall with multicolored wall ornaments.
Since 1979, the building at 43 Bolshaya Yakimanka Street has served as the official residence of French ambassadors to Russia.
The mansion contains intricate floor patterns made with rare imported materials, which led to rumors about gold being used in their construction.
