Antonietta specimen from Latinotype

A copperplate-style script typeface inspired by the rococo aesthetic and the personality of Marie Antoinette, comprising seven styles including decorative caps and ornaments.

About

Designed by Mauricio Astete Brito as his first typeface, Antonietta draws on the copperplate tradition and the work of Hermann Zapf, Ricardo Rousselot and Herb Lubalin. The family spans a Pro and Essential script cut alongside five caps variants – plain, illuminated, shadow, inline and ornaments – giving designers a toolkit for formal and decorative applications. Its rococo spirit suits wedding stationery, luxury branding and editorial display use.

Classification

A formal copperplate-style script with calligraphic roots, supplemented by decorative caps variants including illuminated, shadow and inline treatments, placing it firmly in the script category with display sensibilities.
