BodoniFLF-Roman Police

BodoniFLF by Richard A. Ware is a free Didone serif font whose tall, poised letters combine dark vertical strokes, extremely fine connecting lines, and broad, rounded curves. The severe contrast gives the lettering a distinctly formal elegance.

Fashion magazine covers and cosmetics packaging draw on its crisp precision in different ways, bringing editorial drama to one and an air of cultivated luxury to the other. Formal invitations and arts posters also suit these stately proportions, especially when the subject involves classical music, gallery exhibitions, tailored fashion, or other neoclassical themes.
