Baranovsky Revenue House, Art Nouveau building at Nevsky Prospekt and Malaya Sadovaya Street, Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Baranovsky Revenue House is an Art Nouveau building located at Nevsky Prospekt and Malaya Sadovaya Street in Saint Petersburg. Its ornate stone facade displays four sculptures representing Industry, Trade, Art, and Science, while the ground floor houses retail shops accessible from the main avenue.
The building was constructed in 1897 during a period of architectural transformation in Saint Petersburg as the city expanded rapidly. Art Nouveau was spreading across Europe at this time and influenced the design of major structures in Russian urban centers.
The building displays Russian Art Nouveau through its stained glass windows and ornate stone carvings that decorate the facade. These decorative choices reflect how Saint Petersburg adapted European design trends to local architectural taste during this period.
The ground floor is easily accessible from Nevsky Prospekt and welcomes visitors to walk through and browse. The central location makes it simple to visit this building while exploring the famous avenue on foot.
Architect Gavriil Baranovsky designed this building as both his residence and a working space where he ran architectural magazines. This dual purpose made it a gathering point for the city's design community beyond its role as a commercial building.
