This ornamental capital “Q” in white on black is suitable for use as a drop cap (dropped capital) or a decorative initial. It is taken from a sixteenth-century alphabet in white on black.

I made this letter using components from others, as there was no letter q in the original. Today it might make a good logo or drop cap.
