About this typeface:
Vatican is a calligraphic face. The lower case is influenced by the lettering of Arthur Baker but the caps are more formal, the shape of the Cap V reminded me of a Bishop’s mitre which led eventually to the name. The lighter weight works particularly well in smaller text. —Alan Meeks
