It was Baroque.

Baroque as a style of art followed the Renaissance. It started about 1600 in Italy and quickly spread over whole Europe. It used exaggerated motion, clear details, and illusions to produce drama, tension and grandeur. All that should present the power of the Catholic Church and make people feeling small and unimportant in their relationship with God.
The baroque art and architecture was a component of the Counter-Reformation movement.

The name of the city of St. Petersburg was changed following the Russian Revolution

alekssr [168]

This is true. After the revolution the name was changed from St. Petersburg to Petrograd, which means Peter's city, and a bit later it was further changed into Leningrad. This was because the soviets wanted to completely secularize themselves and remove all figures that were related to the monarchy. In 1991 it changed its name back to St Petersburg.
