Old French Title-Pages
Old French Title-Pages highlight the fascinating journey from the early, simple title-pages of printed books to the intricate, artistic designs that became a hallmark of French literature.

This early style of title-page was largely blank, offering little more than the title itself, with no decorative embellishments or added flourishes. Over time, however,…-

It is not untouched—railways and lodges have left their mark—but it still offers quiet for those…-
