Sobre la familia


Perpetua was hailed as a fresh, new design, quite unlike any that preceded it, when it was released in the early 20th century. Along with its three titling fonts, it became one of the most used typeface families for fine book typography. Today, it is a staple for setting textual content in print and on screen.

First use was in the English translation of “The Passion of Perpetua and Felicity.” The roman was named “Perpetua.” The first italic, named “Felicity,” was a sloped roman. Later, a traditional, cursive, italic was designed. Perpetua was seven years in the making. While some sources give Perpetua a release date of 1929 based on early uses, but it was not a full commercial suite of fonts until 1932.

Historically associated with book publishing – especially fine editions and memorial inscriptions – Perpetua now shines beyond print. It can be an ideal choice for museum exhibition graphics, where readability, subtle beauty, and reverence for content are essential. Its architectural letterforms resonate powerfully across gallery wall text, description panels, and interpretive signage – melding gravitas and high levels of readability.
