À propos de la famille


Aldine 401 is Bitstream's version of the Bembo type family. It was designed based on the artwork of Francesco Griffo for Aldus Manutius. The prototype font originally appeared in “De Aetna” in 1495, a book by Pietro Bembo about his journey to Mount Etna. Griffo’s design was one of the first old-style typefaces, followed by Garamond, and it set the standard for text types in Europe for the next two centuries.

A modern version of Bembo was designed at Monotype under the supervision of Stanley Morison in 1929. Aldine 401 remains very popular in book design due to its well-proportioned classic letterforms and lack of peculiarities. The italic style is based on the handwriting of Giovanni Tagliente. Books and other texts set in Aldine 401 can cover a wide variety of subjects and formats because of its classical beauty and high readability.

The Cyrillic version was developed by Isabella Chaeva and released by Paratype in 2008.

Aldine 401 main characteristics:

  • 4 styles: Regular, Italic, Bold, Bold Italic

  • 621 glyphs in every style

  • 14 OpenType features
