Murillo is a solid style that can be combined with
the open and shaded Plantin, resulting in a bicolor
set named Donatello.
Aldo Manutio is Murillo with fancy forms
for several characters (aehnrABDEFHJLMNRUW). It can be combined
with the open and shaded Virgil, resulting in a
bicolor set named Tintoretto.
Designed in-house at Schelter &
Giesecke in 1897. [Seemann] Note that Seemann accidentally
shows Murillo as Aldo Manutio, Aldo
Manutio as Ratisbona, and
Ratisbona as Murillo.
Preceded by Bramante / Buanarroti (1894), a shaded
variant with hatched fill.
Murillo was also sold by Enschedé as
Versierde Schrift Serie 9 (before 1902) and by
Urania as
Estienne (before 1908, later by
Augusta).

Ralph Unger digitized Murillo [sic!] as Aldo Manuzio (RMU, 2017, “redrawn, extended and redesigned for modern usage”) and Aldo Manutio as Tintoretto Fill (Profonts, 2006). Despite some differences, these two digital fonts are used for the sample.
