| Description |
The hand composition typeface was developed at the Ossip Lehmann type foundry (St. Petersburg) in 1904-07 (after designs by Alexander Leo?). It was redeveloped at Polygrafmash in 1960s for slugcasting composition. Named after Russian Empress Elizabeth I (1744-55). Based on the typefaces of George Revillon type foundry of 1840s, though some characters' shapes were redrawed similar to the Russian Academy of Sciences typefaces (mid 18th century). Sharp contrasted, strong weighted Modern Serif with archaic flavour. The typeface is useful in text and display composition, in fiction, historical, and art books, especially connected to 18th or 19th centuries. It looks greatly in Russian classic literature such as Pushkin and Gogol works. The revised, improved, and completed digital version was designed at ParaType in 1999 by Lyubov Kuznetsova. |
