For its 10 styles and 632 glyphs, Bembo is now one of the famous typefaces. Monotype also created a second, much more eccentric italic for it to the design of calligrapher Alfred Fairbank, which also did not receive the same attention as the normal version of Bembo. This serif typeface originally cut by Francesco Griffo in 1495 and revived by Stanley Morison in 1929. The typeface originally used to publish Pietro Bembo’s book “De Aetna”. The Bembo design was named after notable the Venetian poet, Cardinal, and literary theorist of the 16th century Pietro Bembo. This font is designed in 1928–1929 and most commonly used for body text. Created by the British branch of the Monotype Corporation, Bembo is a serif typeface and a member of the old-style serif of serif fonts.
