    The story of Humana begins with an exclusive volume about some manuscripts in Biblioteca Palatina in Parma, Italy. The title page uses the characters upon which I designed Humana. I suppose they were drawn for that volume. Examining the reproductions in the book I found that the characters on the title page immitate the lettering in a manuscript from the 15th century with Petrarca's "Rime volgari". Not bad as origin! But I cannot free myself from the thought that there may be a typeface with that looks, not just a few characters drawn for that volume. My reference books could not give me any answer about that.
    The name Humana refers to the humanistic era from which the characters originate. Keywords: Humana Roman, Headline, Personal, Historic, Decorative, Handmade, Eroded, Serif, OsF, Ordinary, anno 1500, Casual, Magazine, Advertisment, Announcements, Menus, Urkunde
