Half Uncial - Letter "B"

This video will teach you Calligraphy Corner's Half Uncial "B". So why is it called Half Uncial? We would ask one Scipione Maffei (Italian, 1727) if we could. But he’s no longer speaking on the subject. Perhaps it is because it looks like a shorter version of Uncial. Both fonts actually developed independently of each other from Roman cursive. But if Uncial calligraphy feels to us today like "Irish LITE," then Half Uncial is Hard-Core Irish. This is the real green thing. #CalligraphyCorner #Calligraphy #HalfUncial
