Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin was a man of complex, contradictory character, about whom contemporaries gave different descriptions of appearance and character.

Alexander Bakanov - Creativity, handicrafts and hobbies, modeling, wood carving, Moscow and the Moscow region. Appearance Height: about 190 cm, which by 19th century standards was considered below average. A thin but sinewy figure. Dark, curly hair and swarthy skin made Pushkin stand out among the pale-faced aristocrats. Distinctive features: a high forehead, slightly curly dark hair framing his face, and the famous sideburns that he wore with pride. Light blue or gray eyes with a lively, penetrating gaze. The memoirs of Anna Kern, the poet's muse, speak of the "magnetism" of his eyes, which "now sparkled with laughter, now darkened with passion." Not perfectly symmetrical: the nose was slightly wide and the lips were full, which gave the face a special expressiveness, but not classical beauty.

Contemporaries often emphasized Pushkin's facial expressions and gestures: he was active, expressive, and had a habit of gesturing while speaking.

Character In public, Pushkin could be charming, but often caustic. Even influential people feared his epigrams. He was warm and faithful with his loved ones, supporting them in difficult times. Young Pushkin was described as lively and restless; for his hyperactivity, he was even nicknamed "cricket" in literary circles. Pushkin's classmate Modest Korf testified that Pushkin was hot-tempered, eternally absent-minded, immersed in poetic dreams.

Pushkin himself held a rather negative opinion of his appearance and was always keen to poke fun at himself. In his later years, he readily adopted the nickname coined for him by his Lyceum classmates: "A Cross between a Monkey and a Tiger."
