Letter N c. 18th century

Editor: So, this is "Letter N," an undated print by an anonymous artist. I’m struck by the figure within the letter; she seems to be holding a staff, almost Neptune-like. How do you interpret the inclusion of a figure within the letterform? Curator: I love that you picked up on the figure's Neptunian vibe! For me, the letter 'N' isn't just a letter; it's a little stage. The anonymous artist might be hinting at narratives, using typography to unlock stories. What do you think? Editor: That's a cool reading, it's like each letter could tell a different tale! Thanks, I'll never look at typography the same way again. Curator: My pleasure! Art is like that, always whispering new stories if we just listen.
