Renaiss Italic

by Manfred Klein · Website

Renaiss Italic is a light, calligraphic old-style italic from Manfred Klein that draws on Renaissance-era letterforms, with the kind of angled, flowing strokes you'd find in humanist manuscripts. The weight is delicate but the structure is sturdy enough for body text, and the classical proportions give it a quiet elegance that suits book typography, literary projects, and period-appropriate design work. Klein was famously prolific in digitizing historical letterforms, and this one captures the spirit of its sources without feeling like a museum piece.
