Pushkin specimen from ParaType

A script family drawn from the actual handwritten manuscripts of Alexander Pushkin, spanning five distinct stylistic variants of the poet's hand across seven styles.

About

Designed by Gennady Fridman between 1999 and 2004, the family separates Pushkin's manuscripts into distinct periods and styles: two Script cuts based on 1815 writings, Pushkin One from formal documents, Two from compact everyday script, and Three from a sprawling late hand. Script and French variants cover Latin and Cyrillic, while One, Two and Three serve Cyrillic only.

Classification

A script typeface drawn directly from the handwritten autographs of Alexander Pushkin, spanning multiple stylistic variants of his hand. Each subfamily imitates a distinct period or character of his penmanship rather than a generic cursive form.
