Dolphus Mieg (or Dollfus Mieg)
The Dollfus Mieg Company was founded in 1800 by Daniel Dollfus (1769-1818) and Anne-Marie Mieg (1770-1852). In the 1890s and again in 1901 it published Monograms and Alphabets for Combination, a book with alphabets and monograms for cross-stitching. This book served as example for several digital fonts. Paulo W (Intellecta Design) made Dolphus Mieg Monograms (2011) and Dolphus Mieg Alphabet (2011). There is also the interesting Victorian outline family MFC Sappho Monogram (2010) by Brian J. Bonislawsky. MFC Baelon Monogram (2013, Brian J. Bonislawsky and Jim Lyles) is an 800-character monster font with outlined spurred letters from Dollfus Mieg's book. MFC also published MFC Capulet Monogram (2014), MFC Imperator Monogram (2016), MFC Laroux Initials (2016), MFC Diresworth Monogram (2016), MFC Endeavor Monogram (2018), MFC Keating Monogram (2017) and MFC Elmstead Monogram (2018), which are all based on Dolfus's work. |
