Description

Pantone: 378C

This is a hand typeset letterpress print in Cheltenham Condensed which is part of a project called 100 Tweets. Cheltenham typeface was designed in 1896 and inspired by the Arts and Crafts Movement. These prints are hand torn on 200g Magnani paper with a deckled edge.

The project pays homage to Gerhard Richter’s iconic color chart series. One version of “256 Colours” (1974) is in The Museum of Modern Art’s collection. Like Richter’s series, every color printed in “100 Tweets” was randomly selected, no two are alike.
