Zvorykin (1872 - 1942) was a Russian artist, graphic designer, icon painter, and translator. In 1915, along with other major Russian artists (Bilibin, Vasnetsov, Makovsky, Nesterov, Roerich), he founded the "Society for the Revival of Artistic Rus", an organization that aimed "to spread a wide acquaintance with ancient Russian art in all its manifestations" an aim very visible throughout his style and especially in his Boris Godounov, in sharp contrast with Shukhaev's own Godounov published just two years earlier by the competing publishing house of J. Schiffrin. Zvorykin here placed half-titles and text within decorative frames in the Old Russian style featuring vyaz' typography, taken from old Cyrillic (Church) calligraphy. In 1917-18 Zvorykin collaborated with Chekhonin and Benois, illustrating children's books, before emigrating to Paris in 1921. He began there a fruitful cooperation with the Piazza publishing house, reaching its peak with this colourful Boris Godounov, in which Zvorykin beautifully integrated text and illustrations and developed complex ornamental compositions. The first Russian tragedy with a political theme, inspired by Shakespeare. Boris Godunov is Pushkin's only complete dramatic work. He wrote it in 1825 and was extremely satisfied with it: on its completion, he wrote to Viazemskii in November 1825: "My tragedy is over; I read it aloud, alone, and clapped my hands and shouted, What a Pushkin, what a son of a bitch!". Among the play's dramatis personae, Pushkin included one of his distant ancestors, Afanasii Mikhailovich Pushkin. The commercial success of the first edition was instant: the bookseller Smirdin sold over 400 copies on the first day in 1831; a success described by the young Gogol in one of his early articles, "Boris Godunov. An Epic by Pushkin". The Russian censors were not impressed though: the play, which used a disputed theory of murder of Ivan the Terrible's son by Godunov, wasn't authorised on stage until 1866.
