  • Descrição: The use of color in traditional wooden architecture is a practically unexplored issue. Traditional wooden log temples seem to us almost monochrome. However, there is a lot of evidence that the wooden temples of the XVII–XVIII centuries used color painting in the architecture: these are the architectural backgrounds of the North Russian icons, miniatures and axonometric plans, on which wooden temples and other structures are depicted with painted roofs and sometimes with painted walls or parts. The article systematizes and analyzes the data on the painting of wooden buildings. Certain patterns in the use of color and the most common color compositions are identified. As the main conclusion it can be noted that the painting of plank and plowshare roofs of wooden temples was quite common. Sometimes it was performed in one color, sometimes in two or even three colors. On the roofs of many depicted buildings the combination of red below and green (dark green) above is consistently repeated. Although at the same time many traditional wooden buildings did not have any color solutions in their architectural appearance. The data of ancient images is compared with the materials of field surveys of wooden architecture monuments and photographs of the beginning and middle of the XX century, when painting on old buildings was still quite clear. The cumulative information on the painting of wooden temples of the XVI–XVIII centuries and the XIX–early XX centuries allows us to conclude that color played a significant role in shaping the architectural appearance of traditional Russian wooden churches
