Hanseatic in Veliky Novgorod

The painting was done for the exhibition "Great cities of Russia"
When I arrived at the etudes in Novgorod the Great, I was surprised to learn what role the Hanseatic League played in trade with Novgorod in the 13th and 15th centuries.
The Hanseatic League monopolized trade with Russia, as it dominated the main trade route of the time - the Baltic. German merchants brought salt, fabrics, nonferrous metals to Russia, and wax and furs were brought back.
True, in the picture I made an inaccuracy. The German courtyard was located on the Torgovaya side, not far from the Yaroslavs Court. Therefore, the Sofia Cathedral of the Novgorod Kremlin could not rise right outside its walls.
I was misled by the layout of the building of Gothic architecture in the Museum in the Kremlin (the Museum was located just in the interior with Gothic ribs on the brick arches left from this very building, absorbed from the outside by a later structure). Either I did not carefully read the signature to the model, but I decided that since the architecture is German and Gothic, here there was a German courtyard. Later somebody told me that for some reason the people of Novgorod themselves built a house in a foreign style.
