Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "The newspapers font and colors of the newspapers are inspired by those of Russian newspapers in the 19th century. I made this decision since I thought reflecting the historical background of Kovalevskaya’s life was crucial to emphasize the hardships she had to face as a woman mathematician."
