Perpetua

Eric Gill
1925

Eric Gill was a weirdo, no mistake, but he made gorgeous things, including typefaces informed by Renaissance humanist forms, by stonecarving, by his own eccentric calligraphic hand.

Perpetua as a type design is one of the great achievements in the history of the craft. Regrettably this digital version is really only suited for display use, at large sizes.
