1546 Poliphile Set OTF

This family Two styles 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, including two styles : Normal and Italic "Normal" carved by Claude Garamond, "Italic" we don't know. It was an Italic pattern very often in use in Paris on these years . We have thoughtlessly 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.
