Tolstoi’s "What is Art?" design, loud and uncensored

Tolstoi’s "What is Art?" never needed permission to shake the world, and neither does this design. Marking the moment Diederichs first published it without censorship in 1898, this book doesn’t whisper—it shouts. Every detail, from the rebellious cover to the unruly fonts, captures Tolstoi’s fearless ideas. It’s not just a book; it’s a feeling, an invitation to dance with radical thought. Censorship never stood a chance
