Aries Roman was originally designed by the renowned British artist and typographer Eric Gill in 1932. This typeface was specifically commissioned for the Stourton Press and is characterized by its distinct, elegant proportions and subtle calligraphic influences that were a hallmark of Gill’s work during the early 20th century.
The font features a classic humanist serif structure, making it highly legible while maintaining a sense of historical gravitas.
