The cult novel "Crime and Punishment" introduces us, first of all, to the black side of St. Petersburg. These are black staircases with traces of slops, and courtyards-wells, which are more like gas chambers - all this is shown against the background of peeling walls, indicating that the city is stifling and fetid. It is emphasized that in St. Petersburg one cannot always be healthy, strong and cheerful. The city crushes and even strangles to some extent. It is Petersburg, as shown in the novel, that it is an accomplice in malevolent crimes, theories and ideas that are more reminiscent of delirium than common sense. It is Petersburg that reflects human tragedies and nightmares.
Dostoevsky directed special attention not only to a banal description of the squalid rooms of houses, but also directed the reader's thought to symbolic colors and smells. There are explanations for this. For example, the author marked diseases, squalor of life, poverty in yellow. In the novel, you can see the yellow furniture and wallpaper in the house of the old woman-usurer; yellow face of Marmeladov from regular drunkenness; Raskolnikov's yellow “chest-like or cupboard-like” room; the houses of Petersburg are yellow-gray; Sonya Marmeladova went “on the yellow ticket”; the suicidal woman had a yellow, dry face; Sonya's wallpaper in the room is yellowish; yellow furniture fills Porfiry Petrovich's office; on the ring of Peter Luzhin you can see a yellow stone.
