Аннотация: The article is devoted to the “orientalizing” tendency of the “Russian style”. For the describing this problem we have based on the constructivist theory of nation-building. In case the producing a nation as a concern of the elites, the “nationalization” of architectural language should be viewed as a part of thisactivity. Being the official style of the empire, which has been describing itself as the “Russian kingdom” since at least the 1850s, the “Russian style” served not only a means of communication between the government and the society, but also a way to organize of a wide imperial territory, from St. Petersburg to Tashkent or from Warsaw to Vladivostok. However, another function of the “Russian style” related to the representation of Russia abroad is no less significant. It is well known that, starting in the 1860s, Empire regularly appeared at international exhibitions, insisting on the association of itself with a village hut or palaces from Russian fairy tales. So, the “Russian style” was born first of all as a fantastic vision. It is notable that Russian architects and designers had not enough knowledge on the native tradition and they had to base in their practice on various foreign sources, e.g. Tyrolean, Romanesque or Byzantine.In 1877 Eugen Viollet-le-Duc published his monography on the Russian art (Russian edition in 1879). This fact became scandalous one because the author, famous French architect, restorer and theorist, depicted Russian artistic tradition as having Asian roots. In the controversy that unfolded among Russian intellectuals around this book, the most important was a conflict of two positions from which Russia in its historical and artistic originality was recognized or not recognized as part of Western civilization. Atthe same time, the search for the Asian sources of Russian art was supported not only by foreign experts, but also by upper crust of Russian Empire… Such a transforming of Russia’s image through architecture and design not only hurt the feelings of “Russian Europeans” like Count Sergey Stroganov, but also significantly corrected the idea of Russian identity. Obviously, this culture metamorphosis forwarded a shift from the idea of the Slavic brotherhood in Europe of the 1860s to the Eurasianism of the beginning 20th century, which called to formalize politicaland economic actions in Siberia and the Far East.
