This family was inspired from the French edition of “Hypnerotomachie de Poliphile” ( ” The Strife of Love in a Dream “)( Attributed to Francesco Colonna, 1467) printed in 1546 in Paris by Jacques Kerver. He was using a Garamond set (look at our “1592 GLC Garamond”), including two styles : Normal and Italic (“Normal” carved by Claude Garamond, “Italic” we don’t know. It was an Italic patern very often in use in Paris on these years).

We have thougtlessly modified the slant angle of the Capitals used with Italics because the Normal capitals were used in both styles in the original. The present font is containing scrupulously all of the specific latin abbreviations and ligatures used in this edition (with a few differences between the two styles). Added are the accented characters and a few others not in use in this early period of printing.
