Albrecht Dürer was one of the first ones (1525) to reconstruct the roman capitals, Frederic Goudy did a fantasic job as well as lots of others (most of the fonts are called Trajan).
I could not trace the lettering directly, so I had to rely on my photographs. In order to make it usable for today, I added small caps, numerals and all the diacritical marks -- even Yen and Euro signs.
I designed a complete set without changing the original appearance.
To top things off, I added a relief capital letters alphabet for use as initials. It has got the same spacing as the smallcaps alphabet, so you can produce a two-tone effect by overlaying the relief over the normal capitals.
