Type. A Visual History of Typefaces & Graphic Styles. 1628–1900 - Reseñas
| "A great reference. Culled from Dutch collector Jan Tholenaar's private collection, Vol. 1 gives examples of typography, ornamentation and various uses of the letter form, ranging from 1628 through 1900."— DesignObserver.com, Estados Unidos | |
| "This vast visual history of type design offers an incredible insight into the formation, creation and implementation of letterforms, covering over 200 years of typographic design. The examples on show are sumptuous, bound in a hefty cloth cover and heavy inner paper, which really justifies the lavish typography on show. Everything from gilded Victorian letterforms to lithography presses is covered, with a rich catalogue section that displays in roman, italic, bold, semi-bold, narrow and broad, and includes some often spectacular examples of these letters in use."— Computer Arts Projects, Bath, Reino Unido | |
| "La typographie aussi est un roman. Savait-on que Jan Tschichold, le promoteur de la police de caractères en bâtons, avait fini par la renier pour son aspect trop radical? Que Paul Renner, inventeur de la Futura, se méfiait de l'art abstrait? Un volume pour tout savoir de l'évolution de la lettre imprimée."— Air France Magazine, Paris, Francia | |
| "The pages, and the website, ought to be particularly appreciated by those who work in printing and design, but are intoxicating even for those of us who just like seeing fancy letters beautifully presented."— The Commercial Dispatch, Columbus, Estados Unidos | |
| "Das Buch enthält erneut eine unglaubliche Fülle an Mustern aus der Sammlung des leidenschaftlichen Sammlers Jan Tholenaar. Wunderbar lässt sich hier der Übergang von der ornamentverliebten Kunst des 19. Jahrhunderts zu den funktionalen geometrischen Formen der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts verfolgen. Das Ganze kostet dann trotz veredeltem Leineneinband und guter Druckqualität nur knapp 40 Euro - unfassbar, aber wahr."— Page.de, Hamburg, Alemania | |
| "Wie großartig, prächtig, detailliert und bisweilen auch geheimnisvoll Schriften einst ausgesehen haben, zeigt der Band Type. A Visual History of Typefaces and Graphic Styles."— blog.musikexpress.de, Berlin, Alemania | |
| "If you're the kind of font geek who gets bothered by typography mistakes and anachronisms (or even if you've just rented Helvetica), take a look at this new release from TASCHEN. A two-volume set, Type: A Visual History of Typefaces and Graphic Styles, renders the history of the printed word in lush, full-color scans; lithographs, carved inscriptions, calligraphy-they all get the coffee table treatment over the two books' combined 720 pages... And although purists might quibble over how exhaustive the book is, we're just damn impressed."— GQ.com, New York, Estados Unidos | |
| "Can TASCHEN do no wrong? As a card-carrying typeface hobbyist, I get off on this stuff, but lordy lord don't put this book in my lap I might just leap right in and never come back. Are you ready eyeballs? Start dancing."— ArtsJournal.com, Boston, Estados Unidos | |
| "In dem prachtvollen Band des TASCHEN-Verlags kann man blätternd einen Zeitenumschwung nachvollziehen."— Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Frankfurt am Main, Alemania | |
| "This book is definitely not brief, and covers a lot - if not everything about print type history...I regularly go through this book as reference and to get educated about certain typefaces. There are a lot of other publications about type, but I strongly recommend adding this book to your collection if typography stirs your interest. And if you can't get enough, there is a keycard included in this volume that gives you online access to a library of royalty free scanned typefaces - how about that!"— Color Magazine, Toronto, Canadá | |
