Le Rosart Textura specimen from Revolver Type Foundry

A two-variant textura blackletter from Revolver Type Foundry, split into two distinct stylistic subfamilies.

About

Released in two separate cuts, Le Rosart Textura A and B offer distinct approaches within the textura blackletter tradition. The angular, medieval character of the letterforms makes it suited to display and editorial contexts where historical weight is required. The split into two subfamilies suggests meaningful stylistic differences between the variants rather than simple weight progression.

Classification

The name explicitly includes 'Textura', indicating a blackletter style rooted in the medieval textura quadrata tradition, characterised by dense, angular letterforms.
