Michelangelus typeface from the Vatican
michele casanova

Michelangelus is a typeface designed by Studiogusto for Fabbrica di San Pietro in Vaticano, licensed to and distributed by Microsoft.
- There is no variable font version.
- As one would expect from the Vatican, it includes all the crosses specified by Unicode
- The slant of the cursive version seems excessive to me compared to the slant of the letters in the document signed by Michelangelo (though this is likely a matter of taste).
- I would have preferred an open font license.
