Author's note

Trajanus Roman by Roger White is a free inscriptional serif with the stately proportions of carved Roman capitals. Its slender strokes widen sharply at key points, ending in crisp, flared serifs. The forms are formal and restrained.

It can establish a classical identity for museum branding and historical exhibitions. The carved quality also suits book covers, commemorative posters, and period-drama title cards. Wedge-shaped serifs echo chiseled lettering, linking these uses to stonework, monuments, and antiquity.
