+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The new art of Typography, as well as the need of the humanists to mimic the
+ ancient Greco-Roman period brought back the extensive use of the majuscule
+ letter-forms in both Latin and Greek typography. Greek books of the time were
+ printed using the contemporary Byzantine hand with which they combined capital
+ letters modelled on the Roman antiquity, i.e. with thick and thin strokes and
+ serifs. At the same time the Byzantine majuscule tradition, principally used on
+ theological editions, remainned alive until the early 19th century.
+
+ GFS Nicefore is a typical Byzantine sample of the 5th-7th century period.
+
+ It has been designed by George D. Matthiopoulos.
