Spanish Round Bookhand, 16th c.

by Flight of the Dragon · Website

Spanish Round Bookhand, 16th c. is a calligraphic face from Flight of the Dragon based on the rounded bookhand scripts used in Spanish manuscripts during the Renaissance. The letterforms are bold and deliberately formed, with the soft, circular strokes characteristic of uncial and half-uncial traditions, carrying a weight that feels more authoritative than delicate. Best used for headlines, drop caps, and historical or medieval-themed design where you want something that reads as genuinely rooted in manuscript tradition.
