Author's note

Marcellus by Brian J. Bonislawsky of Astigmatic is a free inscriptional serif font with stately Roman proportions. Its slender strokes broaden decisively at key joins, and crisply flared serifs give the letters an engraved, architectural finish.

Designers working with museums, heritage brands, and cultural events will find its classical manner especially apt. It suits exhibition posters, book covers, and premium packaging because each setting can draw on the same formal, stone-cut character.
