King Harold

KING HAROLD looks like hand-embroidered lettering and was inspired by the Bayeux Tapestry. To get it just right, I drew, embroidered, and scanned all the characters. Version 1.5 makes use of Opentype features for alternate letter forms and ligatures, an expanded character set and improved spacing and kerning.
The Bayeux Tapestry was made c.1073-83 and records King Harold's adventures and loss at the Battle of Hastings to William the Conqueror, with a special appearance by Halley's Comet. It measures 230 feet long (69 meters) and is one of the great examples of Romanesque art.
