I. A. Maslennikova The Tsarina’s Golden Chamber
in the Kremlin Palace: towards the
history of the creation and restoration
of its wall paintings
Abstract:
Recently Russian historical science has devoted significant attention to the process of development, transformation
and representation of the image and ideology by a political power. Monumental works of painting were the traditional
sphere for the embodiment of the Moscovy Rus’ ideology during the XVI–XVIIth centuries, including the decoration of the
Grand Duke’s, and later the Tsar’s, residence – the Kremlin Palace. The article focuses on the history of one of the lesser studied
monuments of the Kremlin: the Russian tsarinas’ throne room – the Tsarina’s Golden Chamber in the Grand Kremlin Palace.
The masterful execution of the paintings on the chamber’s walls are considered among the most outstanding works of Russian
monumental painting of the first half of the XVIIth century, while their subject theme presents an attempt at creating a comprehensive
image of the ideal Orthodox Tsarina, protectress of the faith and relics. The article reconstructs the main stages in the
history of the creation, revelation and restoration of the mural paintings in the throne room, presents for the first time a detailed
description of the subject content of the paintings, and exposes its historical-literary basis and ideological concept. This permits
to include the Tsarina’s Chamber among the list of the most important monuments of Russian Medieval Art, and also to enrich
the understanding of the political ideology in the XVI–XVIIth centuries and the particularities of its artistic embodiment.
Keywords:
history, historiography, source study, palace complex, sovereign court, Tsarina’s Chamber, throne room, painting, restoration, conceptual purpose.
