Hadassah
Friedlaender

An official digital version of Hadassah, the canonical typeface designed by Henri Friedlander between 1932 and 1958. Friedlander, one of the pioneers of modern Hebrew type, worked on the design of Hadassah for nearly three decades, in a process that began in Germany — where he worked at the Hag-Drugulin type foundry, at a time when the available selection of Hebrew typefaces was very limited. In the 1930s Friedlander moved to the Netherlands, where he specialized in type design under Rudolf Koch, the highly influential Dutch type designer. Friedlander continued his research into Hebrew letterforms in the Netherlands, inspired by his teacher. In the 1950s, he immigrated to Israel with his wife Maria — a Righteous Among the Nations. In Israel, Friedlander was appointed director of the Hadassah School of Printing. During these years he completed the design of the typeface, and in 1958, during Israel’s tenth-anniversary celebrations, it was finally cast in Amsterdam and distributed in Israel through Hadassah Printing School, which gave the typeface its name. Hadassah soon became widely present in the Israeli visual landscape, which longed for a modern, sensitive, and refined typeface of its kind. Thanks to its distinctive, rich, and warm forms, it became popular for book typesetting, including poetry and art books. In 2015, after many iterations, Hadassah finally received an official digital version, granting this timeless typeface the respect it deserves. The new version was carefully drawn based on Friedlander’s original renderings, as well as printed sources of the historical metal type. It features seven weights, allowing versatile use from huge headlines to tiny text, and it also includes full support for biblical cantillation marks. The new Hadassah version is trilingual and includes original Latin and Arabic letterforms created by Fontef Studio, designed to work in harmony with Friedlander’s Hebrew.

לייפציג (בגרמנית: Leipzig, בסורבית: Lipsk; בגרמנית נהגה לייפציך; בעבר נקראה גם ליפסיא Lipsia) היא העיר הגדולה ביותר במדינת סקסוניה שבגרמניה והעיר השביעית בגודלה בגרמניה. נכון לשנת 2023 מונה לייפציג כ־610,000 תושבים. שם העיר נגזר מהמילה הסלבית Lipa שפירושה עץ תרזה. בלייפציג התגוררו בתחילת שנת 2006 כחצי מיליון תושבים. ב־1871 עברה העיר את קו ה־100,000 והפכה ל״עיר גדולה״ (Großstadt) רשמית בגרמניה. בשיאה — לפני מלחמת העולם השנייה — מנתה העיר 750,000 תושבים, אז הייתה העיר החמישית בגודלה בגרמניה. בזמן קיומה של מזרח גרמניה הייתה העיר השנייה בגודלה במדינה זו, אחרי ברלין. העיר החלה את דרכה כהתיישבות סלאבית במאה ה־12 והתפתחה במהירות למרכז סחר בזכות היותה ממוקמת בין נתיבי מסחר ראשיים. היא הפכה לעיר המסחר הגרמנית הגדולה ביותר בסביבות שנת 1700. אולם, למקומה המרכזי היו גם חסרונות. מספר קרבות התנהלו בתוכה או בסמוך לה, דוגמת מלחמת שלושים השנים וקרב לייפציג (1813), אשר בשנת 1913 נבנתה אנדרטה להנצחתו. העיר הייתה לאחד ממרכזי התרבות של אירופה בתקופתו של הפילוסוף והמתמטיקאי לייבניץ, שנולד בעיר ב־1646, ובזכות המלחין יוהאן סבסטיאן באך, שהיה הקאפלמייסטר של כנסיית תומאס בעיר החל מ־1723 ועד מותו ב־1750.

An official digital version of Hadassah, the canonical typeface designed by Henri Friedlander between 1932 and 1958. Friedlander, one of the pioneers of modern Hebrew type, worked on the design of Hadassah for nearly three decades, in a process that began in Germany — where he worked at the Hag-Drugulin type foundry, at a time when the available selection of Hebrew typefaces was very limited. In the 1930s Friedlander moved to the Netherlands, where he specialized in type design under Rudolf Koch, the highly influential Dutch type designer. Friedlander continued his research into Hebrew letterforms in the Netherlands, inspired by his teacher. In the 1950s, he immigrated to Israel with his wife Maria — a Righteous Among the Nations. In Israel, Friedlander was appointed director of the Hadassah School of Printing. During these years he completed the design of the typeface, and in 1958, during Israel’s tenth-anniversary celebrations, it was finally cast in Amsterdam and distributed in Israel through Hadassah Printing School, which gave the typeface its name. Hadassah soon became widely present in the Israeli visual landscape, which longed for a modern, sensitive, and refined typeface of its kind. Thanks to its distinctive, rich, and warm forms, it became popular for book typesetting, including poetry and art books. In 2015, after many iterations, Hadassah finally received an official digital version, granting this timeless typeface the respect it deserves. The new version was carefully drawn based on Friedlander’s original renderings, as well as printed sources of the historical metal type. It features seven weights, allowing versatile use from huge headlines to tiny text, and it also includes full support for biblical cantillation marks. The new Hadassah version is trilingual and includes original Latin and Arabic letterforms created by Fontef Studio, designed to work in harmony with Friedlander’s Hebrew.
