Über die Familie


The ITC Galliard story begins with Robert Granjon, a Parisian-born type designer who lived roughly a generation after Claude Garamond. In the 1560s, Granjon labored in Antwerp. Four hundred years later, the punches and matrices he left behind would become the beginnings of Galliard.

When Mathew Carter joined Mergenthaler Linotype as a staff typeface designer in 1965, he and Mike Parker, then Director of Typographic Development, planned to produce the best possible interpretation of Granjon’s work. According to Carter, “The object of designing Galliard was to make a serviceable, contemporary, photo-composition typeface based on a strong historical design… not a literal copy of any one of Granjon’s faces – more a reinterpretation of his style."

Carter's version resulted in a typeface that feels timeless and is equally at home in long-form text and large display applications. Its “pelican-beak” lowercase g, lively italics, and distinct ligatures add personality – without detracting from the typeface’s high levels of legibility.

Galliard was released by Linotype in 1978. In 1981, Linotype provided the rights to the family to ITC.

Galliard's stately forms and refined presence can reinforce brand trust and sophistication in a variety of uses. It lends an air of credibility to printed documents as well as digital brochures, exterior signage, and architectural typography.
