Columbus Italic Font
Columbus™ was designed by Patricia Saunders to celebrate the quincentenary of the voyage from Spanish shores by Christopher Columbus. The roman is based on types used in Spain by Jorge Coci circa 1513, and the italic is derived from a font cut by Robert Granjon circa 1543 and used by Bartolome de Najera in 1548 to print a famous manual by the writing master Juan de Yciar. It has a fresh and lively hand-drawn feel but works well as either a text face or in headlines where the true elegance and beauty of the letters can be seen. Character Set - Latin-1. Font Format - TrueType.
