Baskerville

About "Baskerville"

John Baskerville (1706-1775) was a highly skilled writing master and printer hailing from Birmingham, England.

Renowned as the creator of several types, punchcut by John Handy, his designs serve as the foundation for the fonts now known as Baskerville.

Despite achieving international recognition for his innovative techniques and style, Baskerville faced challenges in competing with local commercial printers due to his uncompromising standards for paper and ink quality.

His exceptional printing quality left a lasting impact on influential printers such as Didot in France and Bodoni in Italy.

Although his high standards posed challenges, Baskerville's fellow Englishmen emulated his types.

In 1768, Isaac Moore punchcut a version of Baskerville's letterforms for the Fry Foundry.

Baskerville's legacy includes the creation of a masterpiece folio Bible for Cambridge University.

Today, his types are esteemed as fine representations of eighteenth-century rationalism and neoclassicism.

Recognized for their legibility and dignified appearance, Baskerville's types excel as text typefaces.

The sharp, high-contrast forms also make them suitable for elegant advertising pieces.
