JJannon

François Rappo revives the work of Jean Jannon through this meticulous study of a quintessential seventeenth-century French type. JJannon’s letters reflect the sense of grandeur and attention to detail that defined the Baroque era.

This contemporary version of JJannon highlights this historical saga. Rappo masterfully reinvigorates its distinctive elegance and sharpness by preserving the asymmetrical axis, the small inclined bowl of the “a,” and the detailed cupped serifs from the original drawings.
