St Basil Cathedral Wallpaper for Android Description

Cathedral of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary which is on the moat an Orthodox church on Red Square in Moscow a well-known monument of Russian architecture. Until the XVII century was called Troitsky as the original wooden church was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. Was also known as the Jerusalem which is connected both with the dedication of one of its chapels.The cathedral was built in 1555 - 1561 on the orders of Ivan the Terrible in memory of the capture of Kazan and the victory over the Kazan Khanate which happened on the day of the Protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary in early October 1552. There are several versions about the creators of the cathedral. According to one version the architect was the famous Pskov master Yakovlev Postnik nicknamed Barma. According to another well-known version of Barma and Postnik two different architects both involved in construction This version is now obsolete.According to legend the architects of the cathedral (Barma and Postnik) were blinded by the order of Ivan the Terrible so that they could no longer build such a temple. However, if the author of the cathedral is Postnik then he could not be blinded because for several years after the construction of the cathedral he participated in the creation of the Kazan Kremlin.The temple itself symbolizes the Heavenly Jerusalem but the value of the coloring of domes to this day remains an unsolved mystery. In the last century writer NA Chayev suggested that the color of the domes of the temple can be explained by the dream of the blessed Andrei Yurodivy (Constantinople) a holy ascetic, with whom according to the Church Tradition the feast of the Protection of the Mother of God is associated. He saw the Heavenly Jerusalem and there there were many gardens they had tall trees wavering with their tops. Some of the trees blossomed others were decorated with gold-leaf foliage others had fruits of various unspeakable beauty.Cool 3D Pics HD Wallpapers - Good Download Free Pictures - Wallpaper Backgrounds for Mobile Phones.You can save or share St Basil Cathedral Photos to Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Line.
