Aloisio the New

Aloisio the New (Russian: Алевиз Новый, romanized: Aleviz Novyy) or Aleviz Fryazin (Russian: Алевиз Фрязин) was an Italian Renaissance architect invited by Ivan III of Russia to work in Moscow. Some Italian scholars have attempted to identify him with the Venetian sculptor Alvise Lamberti da Montagnana, but this is still widely disputed. He was one of the four senior Italian masters to work in Russia, along with Aristotele Fioravanti, Pietro Antonio Solari, and Petrok Maly.
