This type specimen is an exploration of the font family Arno Pro— a typeface created by Adobe Principal Designer Robert Slimbach.
Arno Pro is a contemporary typeface with links to humanist fonts of the 15th and 16th century. Named after the river that runs through Florence, Italy, Arno Pro has a history that connects it to Venetian and Adaline book typefaces. The imagery in the book is from Gustave Dore’s illustrations of Dante’s Inferno. Dante was a longtime resident of Florence. The dynamic images contrast with the refined letter forms to illustrate the storied past of this modernized font.
