The Tretyakov Gallery continues to introduce the public to various artistic styles. Next in line is the Empire style. Empire is a style in painting, applied arts, sculpture, and architecture that concluded the era of Classicism. It formed in France during the reign of Napoleon and later made its way to Russia. Grandeur, predominance of antique elements, symmetry, and richness of decoration - all of this defines the Empire style. Examples of the style include the Arc de Triomphe in the Carrousel Square (Paris), the Vendôme Column (Paris), Kazan Cathedral (St. Petersburg), the Admiralty (St. Petersburg), the ensemble of Palace Square (St. Petersburg), the paintings of Jacques-Louis David and Jean-Auguste Dominique Ingres, and the sculptures of Antonio Canova.
