Tuscan Style alphabet

Tuscan style typeface is a display font that was designed specifically for posters and display environments, headline, logotype, branding, and similar applications demanding high visual impact. The font combines highly detailed, organic shapes with a flavor of Baroque and Rococo influences.

Tuscan style is characterized by contrasted strokes with bi- or trifurcated serifs. The tuscan bifurcated or fishtailed serifs have an ancient history from the days of the roman empire and it is taught to suggest the tail of a fish - the fish being an early christian symbol.
