The Feminine Line


Typographer : a person skilled in the art and process of printing with type. Arnold Bocklin lent his name to the type style that defined the Art Nouveau movement. This "stem style" reminiscent of flower, vine, and branch showed up in print and in architectural forms and patterns throughout Europe as a sensual design element.
