☦ Reference Information.
🔎 The Cathedral of Vasily the Blessed, commonly known as Saint Basil’s Cathedral, is a church in Red Square in Moscow, Russia and is one of the most recognizable symbols of the country. The building, now a museum, is officially known as the Cathedral of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos on the Moat.
🔎 Pokrovsky Cathedral was built from 1555–1561 on orders from Ivan the Terrible and commemorates the capture of Kazan and Astrakhan. It was the city’s tallest building until the completion of the Ivan the Great Bell Tower in 1600. The building is shaped like the flame of a bonfire rising into the sky, a design that has no parallel in Russian architecture. The church acquired its present-day vivid colors in several stages from the 1680s to 1848. Russian attitude towards color in the 17th century changed in favor of bright colors; icon and mural art experienced an explosive growth in the number of available paints, dyes and their combinations.
🔎 Basil the Blessed (known also as Basil, Basil, Wonderworker of Moscow; or Blessed Basil of Moscow, or Vasily Blazhenny) is a Russian Orthodox saint of the type known as yurodivy. He was born to serfs in December 1468 or 1469 in Yelokhovo, near Moscow (now in Moscow). His father was named Jacob and his mother Anna. According to tradition, he was born on the portico of the local church. He is thought to have died in 1552.
