Legend of Zelda fans will have no problem identifying the emblems on these Gabriel Leoni posters. Representing monumental releases within the iconic [Nintendo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/echoes-of-wisdom) franchise, these Leoni tributes are rendered beautifully using vector graphics, with filters to give it a worn-out paper look. Each poster also comes with a quote from each epic Zelda game and is sure to please both old and new fans of the series.

Rather than illustrating Link or other characters found within the [adventure game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-vinyl-soundtrack), Gabriel Leoni has instead designed coat of arms-like insignias to represent each title. The Triforce is prominently featured in each design except for the one representing The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. It stands out from the other posters due to its brown color and tribal graphics.
