Online talk: Emery Walker, typographer

June 19, 2021 15.00-16.00

Simon Loxley looks at Emery Walker’s contributions to the typographic identities of what were later called ‘the great triumvirate of English private presses’ – the Kelmscott Press, the Doves Press and the Ashendene Press – and beyond. How valid were his ideas, and what was the effect of his influence?

Simon Loxley is a graphic designer and writer on design, typography and design history.
