does it remind u nicolas jenson and freedom?



In the end of the last term, my final assignment on digital imaging course was to make a work which represents the concept of "freedom", have a designer to present and imitate his style on the work. And lucky me, I had the type designer and printer Nicolas Jensons who lived in the renaissance era and created roman typefaces. firstly, I supposed that I had to create a typeface! but later my dear instructor suggested me to draw a picture using only types. In this work I used some old cliché; birds, book, window and sun to represent the idea of freedom. obviously this one worked.
