Unique book "Old Petersburg. Walks in Old Quarters" is a bibliographic rarity of collectible and historical value. Its author, Georgy Kreskentievich Lukomsky (1884-1952), a prominent Russian architect, artist and art critic, worked on the book at the junction of eras. The book will help the reader to personally present the image of the city, untouched by time, its corners dear to the heart, inspiring Russian classics to tirelessly sing St. Petersburg in poetry and prose. The most revealing and beautiful details of old St. Petersburg, genuine relics of ancient architecture, only occasionally survived on the author's photographs, with which the book is richly illustrated. G.K. Lukomsky managed to capture that part of his former life that cannot be placed in museums. The reader will see both capital buildings and "beautiful stylish little things" - forged fences and fountains, monuments and statues, original balconies, bridges and gazebos, as well as little-known corners of the city remote from the center that store the seal of antiquity. From the first page of this book you will meet a masterpiece permeated with creative author's love, fully revealing the mysterious soul of St. Petersburg.
