About this font

Stanley Morison’s reworking for the Monotype Corporation of Griffo’s seminal design, first used in Cardinal Bembo’s De Aetna. A copy of this book, introduced into France, served as a model in 1531 for Garamond and his associates’ romans and, through them, the development of the roman letter through the centuries that followed. We can credit to this design the cool formality of our roman typography, as contrasted to the calligraphic warmth and informality of Arabic and Indian scripts.
