Learn the secrets of Chancery Calligraphy with a great maestro
Ricardo Rousselot -Calgrafo, Typographer and Designer who has worked for brands such as Nike, La Casera, La Vanguardia, El Corte Ingles, Panrico, Nestle or Borges among others- will teach you the basic knowledge to enter the exciting world of Calligraphy.

By drawing the letter Cancilleresca, a Renaissance alphabet emerged at the beginning of the 15th century in the court of the Medicis that was later adopted by the Papal Chancery for the drafting of administrative documents, you will learn a little more about its history, the Ductus and the “Short cuts” or shortcuts necessary for optimal performance.

About this course
You will begin by knowing the trajectory and the works of Ricardo Rousselot and then delving into the authors, books and images that have most influenced him.
Below you will discover the history of the Chancellor’s Office and the tools necessary for writing: pens, inks and paper.
Then, Ricardo will explain exhaustively the Ductus de la Cancilleresca, that is, the way, the direction, the sequence and the speed at which the strokes or traits that make up the letters are drawn.
When you are ready, you will touch to write. Following the indications of Rousselot you will learn to master the morphology of the letter, the interlinear and interletrado as well as the uppercase and lowercase.
At the end of the course, after doing numerous exercises, you will use the letter Chancellor to draw an EX LIBRIS or personal mark adding the ornamentation typical of the era, although rabidly modern today.

What is this course’s project?
Once you have learned this beautiful and versatile handwriting, you will design an Ex Libris (stamp, label or stamp that used to be placed on the cover or cover of a book and that contains the name of the owner of the copy) or personal mark profusely decorated with pen strokes.

Who is it for?
All people interested in Calligraphy, with curiosity and desire to create with their hands, are welcome!

No previous knowledge of Calligraphy is necessary. Regarding the necessary materials, there are not too many (wide pen, Nogalina ink and Kraft paper). In addition, you will have a list of addresses where to buy them.
