A standard-looking Grecian design. Works equally well at small and large sizes. I may add more punctuation and numbers later on if I feel like it, but probably not.
EDIT: Exactly five years later, I've added numbers and more punctuation (I needed to use this font for a poster design) :-)

I've added a side shadow to Prometheus Regular. The inspiration was a typeface from the French type foundry Peignot. Identified as "No. 1229" in their Lettres Fantaises of 1896, it sports a very fine side shadow, which I've attempted to re-create here. (I found the "No. 1229" sample on Hoefler & Frere-Jones' blog - fifth image from the top.)This is a clone

Clone of Prometheus Light (Basic Set), which is based on condensed Grecian typefaces by Darius Wells and William Hamilton Page. Many Grecian wood type samples lack lower case characters or numerals (or both!)... hence my sampling of different sources.This is a clone
