orBig Ball of Mud
Big Ball of Mud
The onion-domed Church of the Intercession of the Virgin on the Moat in Moscow is one of Russia's most famous landmarks. It was built by Tsar Ivan IV just outside of the Kremlin walls in 1552 to commemorate Russia's victory over the Tatars at Kazan. The church is better known by it's nickname, St. Basil's. Ivan too is better known by his nickname "Ivan the Terrible". Legend has it that once the cathedral was completed, Ivan, ever true to his reputation, had the architects blinded, so that they could never build anything more beautiful. Alas, the state of software architecture today is such that few of us need fear for our eyesight.
