【 摘 要 】

The article outlines the results of scientific research, which is the result of the author's research project on studying the architectural heritage of the city of Orenburg from the mid-18th century to the beginning of the 19th century. The city-fortress, founded in 1743, was designed on the basis of the new principles of urban planning and architecture laid by Emperor Peter I, which causes a keen interest. To date, several architectural monuments of the city of the period, related to the style of the Petrine Baroque, are lost. Since this style is represented by a few architectural structures, their study is of particular interest in the context of the history of Russian architecture. The architectural appearance of the first major temples of the city - the Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Lord and the Vvedensky Cathedral - is captured by artists and photographers. The search and detailed study of these iconographic materials form part of the retrospective method of reconstructing the cathedrals and constructing its orthogonal projections. Such a method may be of interest for working with historical and architectural heritage in the face of a lack of information.
