@MathieuLommen Oooh! Nice, thank you. That’s indeed close to Macdonald. Certainly closer than the ornamented types by Pouchée: https://oa.letterformarchive.org/item?workID=lfa_antiquarianfacsimile_0008&targPic=lfa_antiquarianfacsimile_0008_001.jpg

@MathieuLommen @fhardwig

c. 1828, L. Dumont, Graveur et Fondeur; À Bruxelles.

While its not the source to the example on fonts in use, it’s similar to the example from Gebr. Tollenaar.
