Embassy of Georgia in Moscow, Art Nouveau diplomatic building in Presnensky District, Moscow, Russia

The structure at Maly Rzhevsky Lane is a 1902 building that combines multiple architectural movements. The facade displays flowing Art Nouveau lines mixed with eclectic details that run throughout the exterior.

The building was constructed in 1902 by architect Sergey Ustinovich Solovyov as his private residence. It later became the Embassy of Georgia in Moscow, and now operates as the Georgian Interests Section under Swiss diplomatic administration.

The night imagery in the decor follows the Symbolist poets: a mail slot shaped like a bat, owls at the column bases, plaster chimeras over some arched windows. To the right of the door is a relief of a snarling panther by sculptor Nikolai Andreyev. The ceramic panel on the Khlebny Lane side, called "Night" or "Rome. Forum by Night", has no documented author; researchers suggest a watercolour by Mikhail Vrubel or Maria Yakunchikova, and the Solovyov family kept a legend about Viktor Vasnetsov's involvement.

The building stands at 6 Maly Rzhevsky Lane, at the corner with Khlebny Lane in the Arbat district, not in Presnensky District. It is a working diplomatic office, so the interiors are closed to tourists; the facades, including the majolica panels and the bat-shaped letter slot, can be viewed from the street.

The house is often named as a likely model for the mansion of Margarita in Bulgakov's novel The Master and Margarita, inspiring the window from which she flies off to Satan's ball. It also appeared in the TV series Seventeen Moments of Spring as a Gestapo safe house where the radio operator Kat was held.
