Morte specimen from Monokrom

Extravagant Baroque capitals lifted from an 18th-century alchemical title page.

About

Morte's letters swing and hook, with odd proportions and theatrical serifs that refuse to sit still. It is a single style built for headlines, covers and anything with an occult or gothic streak. Set it large and give it room.

Classification

Ornate Baroque capitals taken from the 1708 title page of Georg von Welling's Opus Mago-Cabalisticum et Theologicum, with pothook serifs and exaggerated gestures. The single style, Morte Maneer, draws only on those capitals. 316 glyphs with wide accented Latin coverage.
