License : OFL
Description : John Baskerville (1706-1775) got involved in typography late in his career but
: his contribution was significant. He was a successful entrepreneur and
: possessed an inquiring mind which he applied to produce many aesthetic and
: technical innovations in printing. He invented a new ink formula, a new type
: of smooth paper and made various improvements in the printing press. He was
: also involved in type design which resulted in a Latin typeface which was used
: for the edition of Virgil, in 1757. The quality of the type was admired
: throughout of Europe and America and was revived with great success in the
: early 20th century.
:
: Baskerville was also involved in the design of a Greek typeface which he used
: in an edition of the New Testament for Oxford University, in 1763. He adopted
: the practice of avoiding the excessive number of ligatures which Alexander
: Wilson had started a few years earlier but his Greek types were rather narrow
: in proportion and did not win the sympathy of the philologists and other
: scholars of his time. They did influence, however, the Greek types of
: Giambattista Bodoni. and through him Didot’s Greek in Paris.
:
: The typeface has been digitally revived as GFS Baskerville Classic by Sophia
: Kalaitzidou and George D. Matthiopoulos and is now available as part of GFS’
: type library.
