Applied Calligraphy at the Exhibition

The exposition of the International Exhibition of Calligraphy scheduled for this September in St.-Petersburg includes not only works of the world-known masters but also the writing utensils with which calligraphers put their fine letters on paper.

A separate section of the collection will feature samples of applied calligraphy, e.g. engravings by Viktor Saliev, a master from Rostov, embroidery, calligraphic works on ceramics, metal and glass made by the students of the Stieglitz Art and Industry Academy in Saint Petersburg.
