description: "Arthur Eric Rowton Gill was an English sculptor, letter cutter, typeface designer, and printmaker. Although the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography describes Gill as \"the greatest artist-craftsman of the twentieth century: a letter-cutter and type designer of genius\", he is also a figure of considerable controversy following the revelations of his sexual abuse of two of his daughters and of his pet dog."
