Author's note

Blagovest by Nikola Kovanovic is a free Cyrillic display font with a distinctly church-Slavonic, inscriptional mood. The letters feel solemn and ceremonial, built from dark upright strokes and sharp angular cuts that give the font an old liturgical presence rather than a modern text rhythm.

That makes it a natural free font for book covers, Orthodox festival posters, museum graphics, cultural event identities, and title cards that need a historic Slavic voice. It also suits short headlines and monogram-like initials, where the compact, icon-like forms carry enough ritual weight to hold a page on their own.
