This font is not just historic, but classy, timeless, and in its current form, a modern classic.
The original Titling Caps and icons Jacque François Rosart painstakingly carved, now meticulously digitized to be a true, accurate, and complete representation of the original designs.
A display serif typeface that was used to print high class works, including Leopold Mozart’s classic book on violin technique and important printings of the Bible.
Zodiac and Constellations – The Stars Have Aligned into a Great Font
So what’s your sign? Whatever it is, R&F has it, and in so many ways! Pictograph, symbol, constellation and picto-constellation are all included.

Faces for the planets to match those for the sun and moon.
Rosart’s symbols for the planets.
Astrology symbols including, Rosart’s pictographs for the twelve signs.
