Baskerville



Bakerville typeface is created by John Baskerville in 1757. It is a serif typeface which reflects Baskerville ideal of perfection. Its simplicity and well proportion convey dignity and tradition.


Baskerville is a transitional typeface. The contrast between thick and thin strikes is increased make it look sharper and more tapered. There are more circular shapes in Baskerville and the space between each charater is much more regular.
