Jeanne d'Arc

Funck-Brentano, Frantz, 1862-1947 · 1912 · Paris : c. Boivin et c. · 1 picture

Jeanne d'Arc, a 1912 Paris publication by Frantz Funck-Brentano about Joan of Arc, issued by the Boivin house for a general readership interested in French history and sainthood. The title page uses a black-letter blackletter display title, a crown of thorns with gold fleurs-de-lis, and small heraldic shields at the top corners. A designer could take from it a restrained medieval display lettering style paired with simple gold ornament on cream paper.

Joan, of Arc, Saint, 1412-1431
