One of the wonders of the computer age is the ability to visually conjure up the past, serving both the present and the future. In the end, I hope Burgues Script will serve you well when a flourished word or sentence is required for a design project. Burgues is the Spanish word for Bourgeois. Such blinding talent from over a hundred years ago. When I think of Madarasz producing a flourished calligraphic logotype in a few seconds, and try to reconcile that with the timelines of my or my colleagues’ work in identity and packaging design, the mind reels. I can only imagine what steady nerves and discipline Madarasz must have had to be able to produce fully flourished and sublimely connected words and sentences on a whim. It seems that the extremely high contrast of the forms, coupled with the required flow and connectivity of such lettering, will always be hard work for any visual artist to produce, even with the aide of a powerful machine. Madarasz’s method of penmanship was fascinating and challenging to translate into the strict, mathematically oriented language of the computer. The past holds as many surprises as the future.

These two references were the cornerstone for the concept I was trying to work with. Jones’s Lessons in Advanced Engraver’s Script Penmanship by L. The two main sources for Burgues were the calligraphy examples shown in Zaner Bloser’s The Secret of the Skill of Madarasz: His Philosophy and Penmanship Masterpieces, and C. I hope you, visual poet, find my persistence justified in this case. And occasionally, the poet gives in to the persistence. ![]() Once in a while, the assistant persists on what the subject of the poem will be. My work consists of letters drawn to fit together, that become an element of someone’s visual poetry. If I was an actual poet, my words would be about things I desire but cannot attain, objects of utter beauty that make me wallow in humility, or people of enormous talent who look down at me from the clouds of genius. His talent has caused some people to call him “the most skillful penman the world has ever known.” I use the word ‘ode’ in a colloquially ambitious manner. ![]() Burgues Script is an ode to the late 19th century American calligrapher Louis Madarasz, whose legendary pen has inspired schools of penmanship for over 100 years.
