In fact, the book is an art album containing unique, previously unpublished drawings about A.S. Pushkin, each of which is provided with a short explanatory text. The drawings are arranged in chronological order and illustrate episodes from the life and work of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin during his life in the south of the Russian Empire. The texts are based on the works of M.A. and T.G. Tsyavlovsky, and N.A. Tarkhova. The authors do not draw conclusions, but only present and illustrate the facts of the life and work of Alexander Sergeevich. The drawings located on each page of the book are made in the style of linear graphics with ink and pen in a light, expressive and instantly recognizable manner characteristic of the artist Elena Shipitsova. The book describes the time from the beginning of A.S. Pushkin's "business trip" from St. Petersburg to the south until his exile from Odessa to Mikhailovskoye. The book is the third in the series “Illustrated Chronicle of the Life of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin”.
