Library of Minerva, 9th c.

by Flight of the Dragon · Website

Library of Minerva, 9th c. is an ornamental initials font from Flight of the Dragon inspired by the illuminated letterforms found in early medieval manuscripts. The outlined, decorative characters carry the intricate patterning and Celtic-influenced flourishes typical of 9th-century bookmaking, with enough detail to reward close inspection at large sizes. Built for drop caps, chapter openings, and historical or antiquarian design work where you want letters that feel genuinely hand-illuminated.
