Can I get a specific letter?

Yes — the direction field takes any letter, and the same ornament and treatment are redrawn around it.

What size do these print at?

Each drop cap is a square 1024×1024 canvas with the ornament held inside the frame, so it prints clean or scales down for a bookplate.

Is the gold style real foil?

No — the manuscript style shows gold leaf as flat printed color, not a foil-stamped finish.

Drop cap letters: a vine, an art nouveau and a scroll capital

Drop caps — the capital letter "B" wrapped in curling vine stems and small leaves, a fox peering out from behind the lower bowl, an illuminated manuscript initial, flat medieval color inside a ruled border, burnished gold leaf on the letter itself and fine white tracery over the ornament

A drop cap is the illuminated initial that opens a chapter, one letter filling the square with ornament held inside the frame. These nine dress a vine-wrapped B, an art nouveau S and a scrolled R in a gold manuscript style, a Victorian engraving and a cut-paper layered look. Ask for a different letter and the same three treatments draw it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
