The first handwritten Constitution of the Russian Federation

In autumn 2008, the collection of the World Calligraphy Museum was enriched by the acquisition of a unique handwritten Constitution of the Russian Federation. This masterpiece is the brainchild of a team of calligraphers and editors headed by Pyotr Petrovich Chobitko, Presidium Chairman of the National Union of Calligraphers. This project is part of the International Exhibition of Calligraphy, a socially educative forum, organized by Sokolniki Museum-Educational Complex.
