Description of station
Registration of station is devoted to the soldiers who have fallen in the Great Patriotic War.
During the post-war period registration of many metro stations was devoted to the Great Victory, but only similarity of the temple was succeeded to create L. Polyakova.
The architecture of station reminds an early Christian basilica in which, having passed through the ranks lit with torches from the anodized aluminum, you gets to the apse resembling an altar.
Blue color of an apse symbolizes bright future to which all Soviet people so aspire. Absida is closed by the metal fencing executed empire.
The architect thought that light blue light of an absida and bright illumination of all station will force people to forget that they are deeply, and will create illusion of stay on a surface. But "freedom behind bars" became a subject of criticism of Polyakov. Strange even how the similar project could acquire the right life in Soviet period.
