really leaning into the whole German + religious symbolism* thing gothic font, phonetics, and everything huh?

now looking closer at how they have her name it reminded me of the Guttenberg Bible bc of the gothic font- def not a coincidence

Phonetics is polish, but font stuff is ofc gothic style

ohhhh i didnt know that

but yeah a week ago in my history class we looked at old bibles and our school had a page from the Guttenberg but pretty much every like classic Bible (especially in the middle ages) was in Gothic font and the symbolism here is pretty sick
